Violin concerto in D major, op. 61

Description

Muscular yet elegant, eloquent and charismatic - terms that flow from journalists' pens when referring to Nikolaj Znaider. The Danish artist once again affirmed his reputation as one of the most distinguished violinists of our time with his performance of Ludwig van Beethoven's violin concerto with the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig under the baton of its musical director Riccardo Chailly. Znaider himself speaks of Beethoven's popular work as "the bible in a violinist's concert repertoire."
