CD ReviewsWhat a surprise! George Knox | berwyn, pa United States | 09/26/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "What a surprise! This is really moving music, poignant and beautifully sad at moments. If you like the Barber violin concerto, the Gerber violin concerto has put just a little more vinegar into the mix making it, I think, even a bit better. You also hear suggestions of other famous violin concertos, Brahms, Sibelius, Shostakovich, but no quotes and not in ironic "quotation marks" either, but really just as something you and the composer share as you listen to this new violin concerto. The soloist is terrific, playing what must be difficult passages with great flair and personality. The orchestra is perfectly good, though at one moment I wished it had more "Philadelphia smoothness." An unexpected treasure! I thought Classical Music was supposed to be going into decline, at least in the non-opera departments. It is wonderful to have a new violin concerto that is as emotionally involving as some of the great famous ones of the past." Brilliant! Sandeep Talati | White Plains, NY USA | 10/16/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "This CD is masterful in its performance. A must have for any serious classical music buff."
