Baiba Skride - Concertos for Violin - Music & Performance - CD

When listening to this new CD it is difficult to comprehend why the music world had a negative opinion of Robert Schumann's works for violin and orchestra for so long. Baiba Skride now offers a performer's perspective on Schumann's violin oeuvre by recording not just the Violin Concerto in D Minor but also the Phantasy in C Major op. 131 and the Violin Concerto in a Minor op. 129. The last of these is an arrangement for violin of Schumann's Cello Concerto that the composer made for Joachim.
