from Story of a Friendship. The letters of Dmitry Shostakovich to Isaak Glikman with a commentary by Isaak Glikman, page 158:
Oistrakh is already getting to grips with the sonata. He has been working with Gennady Rozhdestvensky, Richter and…myself as accompanists. I could manage the easy passages all right, but the difficult ones were awful.
