There are versions much more virtuosic than the duo Zhislin / Bauer. However, this very touching duo (cover II) moved us for several reasons. The age that separates the pianist and the violinist has created a mother/son relationship that can be felt in the interpretation. It looks like the photo of old Brahms with the two charming ladies. The musical phrasing is ample and deep. The sound of the instruments is beautiful: the experience of life can be felt in Frieda Bauer's piano playing. The sensitivity, tenderness and attention for her partner can be felt in Grigori Zhislin's playing. It is an introspective version, very human.. In the photo (cover I), Brahms is surrounded by the wife and daughter of Viktor von Miller zu Aichholz during a summer stay in Gmunden.. 

Yehudi Menuhin: “Grigori Zhislin has all my admiration, both as a musician and as a superb instrumentalist. I came to know him as an exceptional teacher, but his natural gifts and total dedication have made him not only an excellent musician, but also a great violinist.”

Elizabeth Guilels-Kogan: “Each of his brilliant successes in international competitions and every one of his solo and symphonic performances convinces me of his immense potential as a violinist, artist, and virtuoso, who has mastered a wide range of both classical and contemporary repertoire.”

Grigori Zhislin was born in Saint Petersburg and studied with Yuri Yankelevitch in Moscow. He is a prizewinner of the international Premio Paganini competition (First Prize) and the Queen Elisabeth Competition. His career was subsequently marked by major concert tours throughout Europe, the United States, and Australia. He collaborated closely with composers such as Krzysztof Penderecki, Edison Denisov, Alfred Schnittke, and Sofia Gubaidulina, who dedicated numerous works to him. His outstanding qualities as both violinist and violist, together with the breadth of his repertoire, brought him international acclaim.

Frieda Bauer was born in Kyiv in 1919. She studied piano at the Kyiv Music School and later at the Moscow Conservatory with Konstantin Igumnov, graduating in 1944. For many years, she worked as an accompanist, notably in the cello classes of Semyon Kozolupov and later Mstislav Rostropovich, and accompanied numerous competitions, including the Casals Competition in Paris in 1957.

From 1960 onward, she became the recital partner of David Oistrakh, with whom she toured worldwide, performing programs encompassing the violin and keyboard repertoire from Johann Sebastian Bach to Sergei Prokofiev.

Among the distinctions they received were the Gold Medal for their interpretation of the Beethoven Violin Sonatas during the bicentenary concerts in Vienna in 1970, as well as the Grand Prix du Disque in France in 1966 and 1968 for recordings of sonatas by Ludwig van Beethoven, Maurice Ravel, Claude Debussy, Prokofiev, and Leoš Janáček.

After the death of David Oistrakh, she performed with Igor Bezrodny and Grigori Zhislin. In 1989 and 1990, she gave chamber music masterclasses at the Norwegian Academy of Music in Oslo.

Very soft and comfortable
Color: Black, Size: 1 inch
I really love this yoga mat. It has the perfect balance of comfort and support, so it feels soft enough on my joints but still stable for workouts and stretching. It doesn’t slide around on the floor, which makes me feel more secure during poses. The grip is really good even when I start to sweat, and it’s easy to roll up and store when I’m done. I also like that it’s thick enough to cushion my knees and back. Overall, it makes my workouts more comfortable and enjoyable, and I actually look forward to using it.

As Advertised.
Color: Boysenberry, Size: 1 inch
The boysenberry color is pretty. The Retrospec mat is odor-free, 7/8” thick (so close enough), dense, and non-slip on my wood floor. I wanted the density to cushion pressure points whilst performing various core exercises and general stretching on the floor. It works well for my purpose. I agree with other commenters, the 1” thick mat is too unstable for yoga. That said, the slight instability makes this mat useful for developing balance and core stability by balancing on uneven surfaces, similar to the benefits of walking on grass or trails. The mat is easily nicked by long nails (human and animal) rocks, sticks etc. so pay attention to where you set it up; however not a deal-breaker for my use. I originally looked at the BalanceFrom GoCloud mat because it is the mat that appears in several online reviews with a link to Amazon. However, once on Amazon, I noticed remarkable similarities between the GoCloud and Retrospec reviews. I suspect both mats are identical just with a different brand name and sold by different companies. I ultimately went with the Retrospec mat because the Retrospec is sold and shipped by Amazon so the benefits and protections of “Amazon Prime”, including free returns, apply. The GoCloud mat could be returned however according to the fine print, if the return wasn’t due to Seller’s error the return might be subject to a restocking fee. One of the most objectionable review comments common to both brands had to do with the mat having a terrible, lingering odor. I was willing to take a chance and order it, but would have returned it if it had a bad odor. I did not want to pay a restocking fee so went with the Retrospec mat sold and shipped by Amazon. One exception is Amazon Prime offers the GoCloud in black only. I didn’t want black because I expect to occasionally use it outside in the Florida sun and it will get really hot.
