About this album

A distinguished Brahms Violin Concerto recording, this performance pairs Christian Ferras with Herbert von Karajan and the Berliner Philharmoniker in a finely shaped Romantic reading. Brahms’s Violin Concerto in D major, one of the great 19th-century concertos, balances symphonic weight with solo brilliance, and here that dialogue is presented with elegance and poise. Ferras brings a singing, tightly focused tone to the solo part, while Karajan and the Berlin Philharmonic give the score breadth and discipline. First issued in 1964, it remains a notable example of mid-century orchestral style and Brahms interpretation.
