Warner Classics release this collaboration between Sir John Barbirolli, Yehudi Menuhin, and Gregor Piatigorsky as part of their Barbirolli 78 RPM Era Collection. The release features the stunning Cello Concerto and Violin Concerto by Robert Schumann.
The Cello Concerto in A minor, Op. 129, was completed in a period of only two weeks, between 10 October and 24 October 1850, shortly after Schumann became the music director at Düsseldorf. The concerto was never played in Schumann's lifetime. It was premiered on 23 April 1860, four years after his death, in Oldenburg, with Ludwig Ebert as soloist.
Schumann's Violin Concerto in D minor, WoO 23 was his only violin concerto and one of his last significant compositions, and one that remained unknown to all but a very small circle for more than 80 years after it was written.
Here, Barbirolli accompanies the legendary soloists in a truly stunning legacy recording, presented in high-fidelity modern clarity.
