Tschaikowsky – Mozart – Bach: These benchmarks in Yehudi Menuhin's repertoire are presented on this CD in exemplary interpretations. His take on Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto is structurally clear and striking in its declamation. In Mozart’s D major Concerto he accentuates the tension between formal classicity and expressional subjectivity. Bach’s Chaconne is presented not as a deduction from a theme but as a circling approach towards the fundamental idea.
The recordings is further enhanced by great musical concurrence with the conductors: Ferenc Fricsay, whom Menuhin admired greatly as an artist and as a person, and Karl Böhm, whose ideals in Mozart interpretation he shared. This CD offers an insight into Yehudi Menuhin’s extensive repertoire and his ideals in musical interpretation.
