Russian violinist Dmitry Smirnov's début recording on FHR features works by master baroque composer (J.S. Bach), a leading figure of 20th century music (Béla Bartók) and a wonderful newly discovered work by influential Swiss violinist Hansheinz Schneeberger who died in 2019. The Schneeberger Sonata, written two years before Bartók's Sonata, is a violin show piece, displaying much imagination in it's idiomatic and virtoustic violin writing - this is the first recording of the work. There are many connections that link these three works together - the Bartók and Schneeberger sonatas show influences of Bach. Also, Bartók's First Violin Concerto was premièred by Schneeberger. On this album Smirnov plays a modern violin made by Philipp Bonhoeffer (Bartók and Schneeberger) and a 1795 Johann Schönfelder violin (Bach).

This album is built around a remarkable instrument the Guarneri del Gesù 'Sainton Betti' violin, once played by Prosper Sainton. More than a solo voice, the violin shapes both the repertoire and the narrative of the project.From this starting point a journey through the golden age of the Romantic violin unfolds. Works by Niccolo Paganini, Gioachino Rossini, Hector Berlioz and Richard Strauss reflect the musical world Sainton inhabited, while bringing renewed attention to this fascinating yet overlooked figure.At the heart of the project, violinist Dmitry Smirnov reveals the instrument's full expressive range, joined by Victor Jacob and the Kammerorchester Basel. Together, they create a vivid dialogue between soloist and orchestra. A programme that connects repertoire, instrument and history into a single, coherent musical narrative.
