Joseph Joachim was the most celebrated violinist of the nineteenth century, the foremost interpreter of Brahms and the dominant figure in German classical violin playing for decades. His HMV D88 disc pairs his own 1903 recording of Brahms's Hungarian Dance No. 2 with a separate 1915 quartet recording of Schubert's 'Death and the Maiden' on the reverse. A Joachim recording on any label is among the most historically important early instrumental discs that can exist.
