About

Max Bruch bequeathed three violin concertos to posterity - but only one of them continues to be present in today's concert halls. The composer himself regarded his op. 58 in D minor as much more finely composed than the popular G minor concerto.

This benchmark recording by Andreas Krecher and the Wuppertal Symphony Orchestra disappeared from the catalogue many years ago, but now the D minor concerto is being re-released in an attractive double box featuring orchestral works by Bruch.

Along with its rarities repertoire, the phenomenal acoustic dimensions of the historic Wuppertal Stadthalle and MDG?s legendary natural sound make this double CD a musical feast for the ears.

[Symphony No. 2] it is also the best recording of the work, barely nosing out Masur due to its marginally superior recorded sound that brings out more instrumental detail and color, along with its slightly more supple phrasing.For Bruch aficionados, it is a must-have for the ballad, and a first choice for the Symphony No. 2 and the Swedish Dances.
