“I’ve wanted to record Elgar’s violin concerto for a long time,” says Vilde Frang. “It really is a journey … Such a vast piece of music with such an original structure and so many impulses and ideas … You need to take the time to savour all these moments … That is part of the magic of the piece.”
She has now recorded the epic concerto with the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin and its music director, Robin Ticciati. The album is completed with a delightful short piece by Elgar, Carissima, in a version for violin and piano (played by Thomas Hoppe). “There are some hidden messages in the concerto,” continues Frang. “It actually starts with the answer, and then after it comes all the questions … Playing it is almost a meditative experience.” When she performed the work in the UK in 2023, the Guardian wrote: ““Not only did Frang deal with its virtuoso demands as though they barely existed, but her extraordinarily beautiful tone … seemed to honour the source of Elgar’s inspiration with a startling immediacy.”
