General Interest Béla Bartók: Violin Concerto No.2; Concerto For Orchestra Product DescriptionAfter two first recordings released by Zig-Zag Territoires and devoted to Ravel, Mussorgsky and Rimsky-Korsakov, Emmanuel Krivine and the Luxembourg Philharmonic Orchestra devote this CD to two emblematic works from the end of Bartks life: the Violin Concerto No.2, first performed in 1939, and the Concerto for Orchestra, premiered in 1944. These are absolutely major works both in Bartks catalogue and from this period in the history of music, and are, moreover, close to the universe of Emmanuel Krivine. For the Violin Concerto, it is Tedi Papavrami who was invited by both the Orchestra and by Zig-Zag Territoires. Let us recall the astonishing recording that Tedi Papavrami recently made of Eugne Ysaes complete violin sonatas for this label.

The Luxembourg Philharmonic is alert and agile but lacks the depths of the best recordings (try Ivan Fischer and the Budapest Festival Orchestra. Albanian violinist Tedi Papavrami is immensely lyrical in the Second Violin Concerto, a rich mezzo voice above Krivine's lithe backdrop with the same urgent, blazing virtuosity that made his Ysae sonatas album so exciting last year. --The Guardian Shipping Shipping is free for all customers in Australia.
