Ligeti · Violin Concerto | Nørgård · Violin Concerto · The Secret Melody




Awards Diapason d'Or

This is a fascinating, thought-provoking coupling of two major late twentieth century additions to the violin repertoire. Those who possess Boulez' recording of Ligeti's Concertos (DG 439 808-2, with Saschko Gavriloff, who premiered the work, as violin soloist) may feel little need to obtain this new account. But there is a creative, symbiotic tension between Ligeti and Nørgard, which makes a complete play-through of this disc a compelling and rewarding experience.
