The two concertos have played a central role in Gil's musical life for over 30 years; he first played the Prokofiev publicly with the Israel Sinfonietta on a tour of the USA when he was just 13 years old. Gil has recorded both works before, to much acclaim, but over time he explains, ''things grow in your head, the way you feel about the music changes''.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShaham's 'trademark lyricism', 'effortless and natural playing' and 'impeccable technique' shouldn't leave the listener wanting on this new recording. The studio environment for the recording of the two concertos also affords Gil the luxury of the intimacy to be effectively shared with the listener, drawing them in from the outset.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn taking this 1930s project from a dream to reality, orchestras internationally have supported Gil's idea. After several years in the planning the project got underway in 2008\/09 season with the Orchestre de Paris, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Rundfunk Sinfonieorchester Berlin, and the Boston Symphony Orchestra to name but a few embracing the project and collaborating for performances of multiple concertos from a decade full of riches for the violin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/officialTRACKLISTINGWITHWORLD_9d96408d-adfc-4228-a53c-1546f2d18789_480x480.png?v=1670953817\" alt=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/officialTRACKLISTINGWITHWORLD_9d96408d-adfc-4228-a53c-1546f2d18789_480x480.png?v=1670953817\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePROKOFIEV Violin Concerto No 2 in G minor, Op 63 1 Allegro moderato\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePROKOFIEV Violin Concerto No 2 in G minor, Op 63 2 Andante assai\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePROKOFIEV Violin Concerto No 2 in G minor, Op 63 3 Allegro, ben marcato\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBARTÓK Violin Concerto No 2, BB 117 I Allegro non troppo\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBARTÓK Violin Concerto No 2, BB 117 II Andante tranquillo\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBARTÓK Violin Concerto No 2, BB 117 III Allegro molto\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Canary Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43822132461818,"sku":"892118001167","price":26.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/products\/8_47250ae5-e37a-4829-a93f-158a7f7e9fac.jpg?v=1672179023","url":"https:\/\/classicselectworld.com\/de-de\/products\/1930s-violin-concertos-2bartok-shaham-stuttgart-radio-symphony-orch","provider":"ClassicSelect World","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
