  • Description

    The latest release by Billboard chart-topping violinist Rachel Barton Pine uniquely pairs the concertos by Antonín Dvorak and Aram Khachaturian, composers who were inspired by the folk music of their respective countries and raised the idiom to high art.

    Traditional folk music elevated to high art: that theme binds the unique coupling of Billboard chart-topping violinist Rachel Barton Pine's latest release of the Violin Concertos by Czech composer Antonín Dvorak and Soviet-Armenian Aram Khachaturian. The multi-faceted young American Teddy Abrams conducts the Royal Scottish National Orchestra, making for a truly international collaboration.

    CRITICAL ACCLAIM
