BRAHMS, J.: Violin Concerto (Busch, New York Philharmonic Sy

Here is a recently discovered passionate and expressive live recording by the then 52 year-old German master, Adolf Busch, who made very few concerto recordings, conducted by his old school mate, William Steinberg. The coupling is a fine live performance of the Clarinet Quintet from a Town Hall concert in New York, at which Reginald Kell made his U.S. debut. The technical reconstruction was done by Maggi Payne and the liner notes are by Tully Potter.
