About

One of the most widely performed works in the violinist’s oeuvre, Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto has been the subject of many a release over the years. Here, rather refreshingly, it is joined by a host of other orchestral works written for the instrument: the quiet Sérénade mélancolique, created for the esteemed Hungarian violinist Leopold Auer and composed soon after the Piano Concerto No.1 in B minor; the Valsescherzo, a charming divertissement with a gypsy flavour and strong rhythmic pulse – not to be confused with the much more famous version for solo piano; and finally Souvenir d’un lieu cher, whose middle movement was originally intended as the slow movement of the Concerto and which was later re‐orchestrated by Glazunov out of the lesser known version for violin and piano.

Interpreting these works is internationally renowned Ilya Grubert, winner of the Tchaikovsky Competition back in 1978 and described as “a musician of exceptional talent, a violinist in the tradition of the great Russian virtuosos, possessed of a clear unwavering tone and an extraordinary technique.” (New York Times). He is supported by an all‐Russian cast: the Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra directed by Vassily Sinaisky – now Conductor in Residence at the Bolshoi Theatre.
