Jir Belohl vek - Symphony 8 / Golden Spinning Wheel - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Richard Strauss' Concerto for Violin and Orchestra in D Minor, Op. 8 performed by the Moscow RTV Large Symphony Orchestra and Valentin Zhuk with Alexander Lazarev conducting.

Now almost entirely forgotten, Adolf Jensen (1837-79), one of the major figures of German Romanticism, composed a large corpus of songs and piano music in a language fusing the heritage of Schumann, Chopin and Liszt into an individual style distinguished by it's melodic and lyrical appeal. This first in an important, new series of recordings of Jensen's music features Erling R. Eriksen, Prof. Of piano in the Dept. Of Music and Dance at the Univ. Of Stavanger (Norway). The extensive booklet notes are by one of the experts on 19th c. piano music, Rohan Stewart-McDonald.
