He studied at the Odessa Conservatory under the guidance of Pyotr Stolyarsky, a revered violin teacher who also mentored other famous violinists like Nathan Milstein. Oistrakh's playing was characterized by a warm, rich tone, impeccable technique, and deep musicality. His interpretations of both the classical and romantic repertoire, especially the works of Beethoven, Brahms, Tchaikovsky, and Shostakovich, were widely celebrated.
