Universally renowned Violin Concertos by Mendelssohn and Bruch are the featured works in this outstanding collection of Romantic Concertos.

Felix Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto in E minor, Op. 64 is one of the most performed if not THE most performed violin concerto in the world today. It has been recorded by every significant violin virtuoso of the last 60 years. Mendelssohn's very significant melodic gifts are apparent in the folk-like themes used throughout the piece. The demands on the violinist are substantial and there is a great mix of lyrical as well as dynamic virtuosity.

The second work in this volume is Max Bruch's Violin Concerto No. 1 in G minor, Op. 26. This is Bruch's most famous work and it remains one of the most popular violin concertos to this day. The concerto was composed in 1866. A revised version was premiered by 19th century violin virtuoso Joseph Joachim in 1868.

The Adagio second movement is truly one of the most beautiful of all slow movements in the violin repertoire. It excels, drawing out a soloist's lyrical artistry, as well as delivering a towering and ecstatic overall emotion. Pure Romanticism through and through. Felix Mendelssohn's famous Violin Concerto in E minor, one of the greatest of all violin concertos and part of all modern concert soloists repertoire plus an equally significant work; Max Bruch's Violin Concerto No. 1 in G minor, are the featured works on Romantic Concertos, Vol. 4. These two concertos combine to give you an incredible soundtrack color palette. Add these tracks to your next project and you'll hear the power great classical music brings to a production's underscore.
