Brahms / Berg: Violin Concertos - Capucon

Renaud Capucon (violin) Wiener Philharmoniker, Daniel Harding

Berg: Violin Concerto 'To the Memory of an Angel' (1935) Brahms: Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 77

“Despite the intensely lyrical nature of the violinist's tone, Capucon also projects a harsher more angst-ridden view of [Berg's] music...the Brahms is something of a mixed bag. Things don't get off to a good start with a poorly focused orchestral tutti...The performance is certainly lifted by Capucon's gloriously rich sound which seems to galvanise the orchestra into playing the score with a greater degree of involvement.” ~ BBC Music, Nov. 2012
