Szeryng Plays Violin Concertos; Tzigane
) | Label: HAENSSLER Catalog: 94229 Format: CD Szeryng; SWR Symphony Orchestra Baden-Baden and Freiburg; RosbaudComposed by: Nardini; Vieuxtemps; Ravel Henryk Szeryng, once regarded a supreme master, has faded from memory, his fame not comparable to that of Heifetz or Oistrakh, Milstein or Menuhin, although often mentioned along with them. His performances set standards; the major record companies vied for his favor. In 1955 Szeryng played with the Sinfonieorchester des Südwestfunks under Hans Rosbaud. These live recordings of a Romantically-edited Nardini Concerto in E minor and Vieuxtemps’ popular fourth concerto were followed in March 1957 by studio recordings of Ravel's "Tzigane" and Schumann‘s neglected Violin Concerto.
