There was about that song something incandescent, for this Brahms was Milstein at white heat.

Not the noblest performance we have heard him play, or the most spacious, or even the most eloquent.

Those would be reserved for the orchestra's great nights when the soloist can surpass himself.

This time the orchestra gave him some superb support fired by response to his own high mood.

But he had in Walter Hendl a willing conductor able only up to a point.
