Tchaikovsky - Violin Concerto, Op. 35

Opis i zarys fabuły

Barbican Hall, London, UK. Dutch violinist Simone Lamsma brings lyricism and fire to Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's virtuosic Violin Concerto, joining conductor Gianandrea Noseda and the London Symphony Orchestra. Tchaikovsky wrote the piece in 1878 on the shores of Lake Geneva, collaborating closely with his former student and lover, violinist Iosif Kotek. The composer initially intended to dedicate the piece to the young Kotek, but eventually dedicated it to another violinist, Leopold Auer, as he was afraid of the gossip the dedication would cause. This performance was recorded at the Barbican Hall in London, UK, on April 10, 2022.
