BRUCH, M.: Violin Concertos Nos. 2 and 3 (Fedotov, Russian Philharmonic, Yablonsky) |
While Max Bruch’s first violin concerto is one of the most popular in the repertoire, his other
two remain relatively unknown. The second, dedicated to the virtuoso Pablo Sarasate, opens
with a rhapsodic Adagio brimming with sublime melodies, its declamatory middle movement
leading to a rhythmic finale. In contrast, the third, from 1891, launches heroically, the soloist
taking centre-stage in the lyrical Adagio middle movement, a perpetuum mobile rondo finale
capping the work. Maxim Fedotov’s recording of Bruch’s Violin Concerto No. 1 can be heard
on Naxos 8.557689. His recording of the Scottish Fantasy is available on 8.557395.
