 rokofiev
was not as prolific in the violin repetoire as he was in piano. As a result, there is unfortunately not
a significant body of violin and chamber work to which violinists could 'dedicate' their efforts.
However, this is not to say there haven't been venerable great violinists who championed
Prokofiev's work. The most important violinist in Prokofiev's life was David Oistrakh,
who collaborated with Prokofiev in some of his violin works and recorded all of Prokofiev's
violin repetoire multiple times.
Several of today's brightest violinist have recorded most of Prokofiev's major violin works
with spectacular results. Others, like Anne-Sophie Mütter have recorded very little of
Prokofiev's violin repetoire, yet frequently play his works in public recitals and show
a profound understanding of his music.
