CD Reviews

Gorgeous, Romantic, Melancholy....

Eric Brinkmann | Palo Alto, CA United States | 06/30/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is the finest viola concerto ever written, and it is expertly performed by Imai. It's wonderful to hear such an expressive and lyrical piece played by such an expressive instrument. An extra bonus on this cd is two of Walton's more obscure pieces, both of which have their charms. I especially like the Hindemith variations."

Un gran disco.

"Comparto plenamente la opinión del crítico anterior que afirma que éste es el mejor Concierto para Viola, que jamás se haya escrito. La interpretación es cálida y esmerada tanto de parte de la orquesta como de la solista. Además el disco trae dos obras de Walton muy buenas, especialmente "Variations on A Theme by Hindemith for orchestra", obra ésta que gustaba mucho al propio Hindemith."
