| |  | Sinding: The Works for Violin & Orchestra
Christian Sinding is one of the few Norwegian composers of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries who gained recognition with their music outside their native country. Unlike Edvard Grieg, Norwegian folk-elements are not prominent in his richly contrapuntal post-Wagnerian orchestral style. These highly romantic and virtuosic works for Violin and Orchestra are interpreted by the young Ukranian violinist Andrej Bielow, also known for being the leader of the Szymanowski Quartet. | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |

William Walton’s Violin Concerto, heard here in its revised version in a now legendary recording conducted by the composer, was undoubtedly Jascha Heifetz’s most successful commission. Like the other Romantic works on his disc by Camille Saint-Saëns and Christian Sinding, it perfectly suited Heifetz’s polished elegance and scintillating virtuosity. Reissue Producer and Engineer: Mark Obert-Thorn “Heifetz's Walton Violin Concerto under the composer's baton (1950) may be the best the work has ever had. Unmissable.” BBC Music Magazine, July 2011 ***** | | | (also available to download from $9.00) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. (Available now to download.) |
