The Romantic Violin Concerto Vol.8

The Romantic Violin Concerto Vol.8
- NEW - HAGNERFLEMISH RPOBRABBINS - Vieuxtempsromantic Violin Con Vol 8 - CD CD
Hyperion s Romantic Violin Concerto series reaches volume eight, and the music of the Belgian composer Henry Vieuxtemps, himself widely considered the finest violinist in Europe after the death of Paganini. Listening to the repertoire recorded here, he certainly deserves to be ranked among the most important composers for the violin in the mid-nineteenth century. Vieuxtemps never indulged in sheer virtuosity for its own sake; instead in his concertos and chamber works he brought a more classical dimension to the violin repertoire in place of the technically brilliant variations and fantasies on popular operatic themes that were so popular with audiences. The concertos are played here by the young virtuoso Viviane Hagner, a former BBC New Generation artist, acclaimed for her highly intelligent musicality and passionate artistry, in her Hyperion debut.
