Description
This CD features German star violinist Christian Tetzlaff with virtuoso Romantic concertos by Felix Mendelssohn and Robert Schumann. The Mendelssohn Concerto is one of the most frequently performed violin concertos of all time, with an unfailing popularity among audiences. Also included is Schumann's more seldom recorded Fantasy for Violin and orchestra, which he completed shortly before writing the Concerto. One of Schumann's last significant compositions, the long-lost Violin Concerto saw its premiere performance only in 1937, and was hailed by Yehudi Menuhin as thehistorically missing link of the violin literature." Christian Tetzlaff is accompanied on this recording by the Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra - whose Artist-in-Residence he became in 2008/09 - and their acclaimed music director Paavo JArvi. This is the first CD in a series of releases featuring Christian Tetzlaff on the Ondine label."
