CD Reviews

#1 Romance for Violin
Jerome A. Buszek | Olathe, KS | 08/12/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I have all the Peterson-Berger symphonies, but this is one of the best. As the other reviewer indicated, the gem in this cd is the Romance for Violin and Orchestra. It is a diamond in the rough. I had never heard this piece before, but now I have all three known interpretations.

The Romance begins with a harsh, somber melody that almost sounds like anguish. Then the seas part and the most beautiful melody that Petereson-Berger ever wrote is introduced. He really put his whole heart and emotions into this melody. Once you've heard it you'll never forget it. I wish more people would be able to hear this Romance as it is truly a forgotten classic, in my estimation.

This is an exceptional cd that should not be overlooked. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves Romantic music."
