Synopsis

Product Description
While Danish Romantic violin concertos aren't exactly ten a penny, these three important examples of the genre
firmly establish that the great Romantic violin concerto certainly had a place in Danish music: from Niels W. Gade's
grand, finely orchestrated concerto from 1880 through P.E. Lange Müller s concerto from 1902 with its many
moving melodies to 1943-44 when Rued Langgaard combined old virtues with new currents in his brief pastiche of a
violin concerto. These three rarely performed works are presented on this release by one of Denmark's absolutely
finest soloists, Christina Åstrand, here in good Finnish company with the Tampere Philharmonic and its chief
conductor John Storgårds.
