Mutter?s Magnificent Brahms Violin Concerto
Review of Brahms: Violin Concerto; Schumann: Fantasie,Op 131 by  zerbine28

Advantages: Mutter's eloquence and sensitivity in older recording are enhanced here.
Disadvantages: None at all!

...-Hungarian violin prodigy to modify the piece as necessary. (Brahms himself did not play the violin). Joaquim did so, and the piece finally premiered on January 1, 1879--to a confused and rather hostile reception (not unlike what would later greet the Tchaikovsky violin concerto). Pianist Hans von Bulow described it as a concerto not ?for the violin?, but ?against it?! Brahms tweaked it further until the piece finally saw publication months after its premiere. With such shaky beginnings, it might have been hard to imagine the work becoming one of the most beloved in the violin repertoire today. To be quite frank, the concerto did almost nothing for me at first. None of the musical themes appealed to me, buried as they were in the work?s complexity. It was hard to follow the melodic line, which was obscured by frequent shifts in rhythm and tempo. In... Read review

Familiar concertos by Vivaldi
Review of Vivaldi: (The) Four Seasons; Violin Concertos by  armychick

Advantages: Classic Concertos for Everybody
Disadvantages: Strings only!!!no woodwind...boo!

...prominent. Thus Vivaldi wrotes sonnets to accompany his music and to establish each thought in his mind. It is obvious to say then that Concerto is labelled Spring through to Winter, with three movements within each season. Most form again adopts the ABA construction, a favorite of Vivaldi. These are as follows: 1: Spring: Concerto No.1 in E Major Allegro / Largo / Allegro This I think, is the most well known of the Concertos, and has been used on numerous car adverts and airline adverts. This is what most people remember Nigel Kennedy playing at the very beginning of Nigel Mania!!!! The string compostion reflects the freshness of spring and depending on what recording you buy (trust me there is loads of choice!) this normally sells the album, this movement is the most played also by a leading Classical Radio. 2: Summer: Concerto...

J. S. Bach Gets Karajan's Grand Treatment
Review of Herbert Von Karajan - Bach Violin Concerto No 2 (DVD) by  zerbine28

Advantages: J. S. Bach; all musicians and vocalists; Karajan.
Disadvantages: Karajan's big, ponderous sound and historical inauthenticity, for some.

...the Violin Concerto in E Major. This is followed by the great 'Magnificat', for which a handful of guest singers hold forth splendidly, backed by the RIAS Kammerchor (Chamber Choir). Herr von Karajan helms this ship from the keyboard of the second harpsichord. Already about 77 years old at the time of this recording, the man is much more sparing in his movements. (By contrast, the late Hungarian Georg Solti was still an energetic 90 at the time he guest conducted the Washington National Symphony Orchestra just a couple of years before his death.) The Berlin Philharmonie (Berlin Philharmonic Hall) is differently designed to the usual concert venue. The stage is close to street level and surrounded on four sides by the audience, with higher, tiered seating on three sides. Tubular light fixtures hang in staggered fashion from the ceiling...
