4 out of 5 stars Beautiful Playing But Poor Interpretation.......2004-01-28

For a budget priced disc recorded all the way back in the late 60's, this is a surprisingly high quality CD in terms of both sound quality as well as the playing. Portal and Pludermacher played very musically and well balanced each other. I especially have to compliment Pludermacher's performace: he brought a lot of strength to the studio that day. Portal on the other hand, didn't seem to give the Brahms sonatas their full credit. Though he did seem to be in good control of his playing, music of Brahms just simply can't be played with that big of an vibrato Portal has as well as seemingly often dragged tempos.

If you could get over Portal's vibrato, this is an enjoyable performance at a nice price. However, if you're serious about studying this piece, I'd suggest shelling out the 8 more bucks and get the renowned Dave Shifirin recording.
