Elgar: Violin Concerto / Davis, Ehnes

James Ehnes - Violin

Violin Concerto in B minor op.61; Serenade for strings, op.20

GRAMOPHONE AWARD WINNER - CONCERTO CD OF 2008
Sure to be one of the outstanding recordings for Elgar anniversary year, this quite outstanding Violin Concerto was recorded live in May at two performances given during the Philharmonia Orchestra's Elgar celebration series under the direction of Elgarian Andrew Davis. The combination of a top English orchestra and conductor steeped in the music with an international violinist coming to it relatively fresh results in an interpretation that will hugely widen the concerto's appeal worldwide.
