  • Description

    Theodor Grigoriu (born in Galati, Moldavia, in 1926) is one of the major Romanian composers in the period after Enescu.His vast output is little known outside his own country, although it includes oratorios, symphonies, cantatas, chamber music, film-scores and much more. His musical roots reach back to Romanian folk-music and to the modal melodies of ancient Byzantium - as in this large-scale triptych, Byzantium after Byzantium, which consists of a violin concerto, a sonata for solviolin and a sonata for violin and piano.All three works are performed here by Sherban Lupu, the violinist for whom the music was written.
