RecommendedChristian Tetzlaff (violin)
Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra, Hannu Lintu
This is altogether a fine performance [of the Second Concerto], with Christian Tetzlaff a touch more rhythmically alert and characterful than Renaud Capuçon on his recent recording of these two... — More…

Martinů: Violin Concertos Nos. 1 & 2 - Bartók: Sonata for Solo Violin
Frank Peter Zimmermann (violin)

Bartók: Piano Concertos Nos. 1, 2 & 3 RecommendedJean-Efflam Bavouzet (piano)
BBC Philharmonic, Gianandrea Noseda
Bavouzet relishes the high-octane energy of the outer movements of the first two concertos but through his imaginatively varied use of colour manages to avoid the trap of making Bartók's percussive... — More…

RecommendedVilde Frang (violin), Barnabás Kelemen (violin), Lawrence Power (viola), Nicolas Altstaedt (cello), Alexander Lonquich (piano)
For me, Veress’s trio is the heart of this disc. There have been four previous recordings, none of which I’ve heard, but I can’t imagine a more inspired performance; these three play as if they... — More…

Bartók: Violin Concertos Nos. 1 & 2
RecommendedIsabelle Faust (violin)
Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra, Daniel Harding
Faust resists the kind of full-blown romantic ardour that might seem appropriate to music inspired by a protracted love affair. Instead she weaves her sinewy melodic line in a more introverted... — More…
