Bruch: Complete Works for Violin & Orchestra, Vol. 1

Max Bruch is perhaps the most famous one-work composer. He enjoys worldwide renown as the author of his first Violin Concerto, but nearly everything else besides has been forgotten. + This is the first volume of a new edition of Bruch’s complete oeuvre for violin and orchestra, featuring violinist Antje Weithaas. + The completely underestimated Violin Concerto No. 2, the centerpiece of this release, displays a formal structure and compelling thematic logic qualifying it as one of the high points in the 19th century concerto literature.
