S0481. HENRYK SZERYNG, w.Haitink Cond. Concertgebouw Orch.: Concerto in D (Brahms), recorded 1976; Concerto in e (Mendelssohn), recorded 1973. (E.U.) Newton Classics 8802053. - 8718247710539

CRITIC REVIEW: “The great Polish-born violinist Henryk Szeryng had a strong association with the Brahms Concerto throughout his life, and performed it at the very beginning of his career right through to his last concert. He won many awards for his performances of Brahms’s violin repertoire. He brings his technical assurance and elegant style to both these performances, and is joined by the renowned partnership of Bernard Haitink and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra. The recordings were made in the warm and resonant acoustic of the Concergebouw Hall, Amsterdam in 1973 (Brahms Concerto) and 1976 (Mendelssohn Concerto).”
