  • Description

    This release continues our exploration of rarely performed or recorded symphonic works by Miklos Rozsa, composer of the renowned film score for Ben-Hur. The programme comprises his Rhapsody for Cello, in which the young composer found his true style; his Notturno ungherese ("a nostalgic night piece, harking back to the memories of my childhood in Hungary"); and the late Sinfonia concertante for violin and cello, a fiendishly difficult work that is among Rozsa's finest, least filmic concert works, and one of his most underrated. It was legendary cellist Gregor Piatigorsky and violinist Jascha Heifetz who instigated its composition, but they never went on to perform it. The soloists on this recording are cellist Harriet Krijgh and violinist Nikita Boriso-Glebsky.
