Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto Souvenir Dun Lieu Cher

Jansen Janine

Catalogue # 4780651

Tchaikovsky:
Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 35
Souvenir d'un lieu cher, Op. 42

Janine Jansen (violin)
Mahler Chamber Orchestra, Daniel Harding

The second major Romantic concerto recording for Janine Jansen following her remarkable interpretations of two pillars of Romantic violin repertoire, the Mendelssohn and Bruch concertos.

Jansen has already wowed the world with her performances of Tchaikovsky’s tour de force: “Janine Jansen impressed again in Tchaikovsky’s Violin concerto with the technical precision and musical bravura with which she played this beloved repertoire.” NRC Handelsblad

Souvenir d’un lieu cher provides a delightful link to the Concerto recording. The first movement ‘Meditation’ was initially intended as the Concerto slow movement, before it was later replaced by the ‘Canzonetta’.

Review

Janine Jansen is slowly building an impressive catalogue of recordings and this one may be at the top ofthe list. With a beautiful focused tone and sublime technique, this performance is one that commands your attention from the moment the first notes come wafting out from the speakers. Also, the choice of a chamber orchestra gives the recording a more intimate feel and coupled with Daniel Harding’s astute direction, puts this CD in the highly recommended category.
