After two successful productions (violin concertos by Gál and Mendelssohn), the collaboration between Thomas Albertus Irnberger and the Israel Chamber Orchestra now leads to a third CD with works by Karl Goldmark. You can hear the long-neglected Violin Concerto in A minor op. 28 by the Austro-Hungarian composer of Jewish descent conducted by Doron Salomon and his Violin Sonata op. 25 with Pavel Kaspar on the piano. The artistic sovereignty of the performance disguises the fact that due to the per- manently delicate situation in the Near East the recording in Israel could only be made under very difficult conditions and with a great deal of courage.
