CD Reviews

Outstanding Performances of 3 rare 20th century compositions
John G. Statter | 06/24/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Dear Readers,



Martinu's music continues to be a revelation to me. This recent release of his Violin Concerto No 2, with Isabelle Faust as soloist, is outstanding. The Toccata e due Canzoni is also brilliantly played.

(The only problem is that this work is described as being for strings and piano obligato-it is actually written for orchestra-albeit a smaller one than the Concerto-and piano obligato).

There is real depth to this music.
