Description
One of the most distinguished violinists of his time, B?®riot was the father of the Franco-Belgian school of violin playing. His ten violin concertos display the youthful ?®lan and high spirits of early romanticism. B?®riot combined elements of the French School charm and taste with the new pyrotechnics pioneered by Paganini. B?®riot's Concertos Nos. 2 and 3 show the immediate influence of Paganini with their brilliant displays of virtuosity and operatic melodies, while the Concerto No. 5 displays a more playful side. The excellent soloist on this disc is the acclaimed Philippe Quint, already a recognised star in the Naxos pantheon of artists:
