Ferdinand David: Romantic Violin Concerto Vol. 9

Ferdinand David: Romantic Violin Concerto Vol. 9

Ferdinand David is principally known today as the dedicatee of Mendelssohn's violin concerto. But in his time he was also celebrated as a composer. His output included two symphonies, five violin concertos, a string sextet, quartets, several sets of variations and volumes of studies for violin, choral works and some lieder. His works had considerable success in his lifetime, and their revival reveals highly attractive music of phenomenal accomplishment. Bearing in mind David's close affinity with Mendelssohn it is hardly surprising that some of his music has a fairly Mendelssohnian character. Hagai Shaham, a regular of this series and a master of the 19th century virtuoso idiom, performs these works with his usual panache, ably accompanied by the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra and Martyn Brabbins.
