The three Piano Concertos appear in muscular and sumptuously recorded performances (one of the finest examples of Decca’s 1970s engineering at the venerated Kingsway Hall) by Pascal Rogé and Walter Weller. Likewise, the Second Violin Concerto resurrects a long-buried 1980 Argo recording by the late Iona Brown with none other than Sir Simon Rattle conducting. The First Violin Concerto, the result of an ultimately called-off love affair with Stefi Geyer, found its music rechannelled into the ‘Two Portraits’ and in Kyung Wha Chung and Chantal Juillet, respectively, you find two of the composer’s most persuasive advocates.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/TRACK_LISTING_WITH_WORLD_1_4b3088c9-df3c-47ba-bf41-5b7e5d1a8144_480x480.png?v=1597936873\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBELA BARTÓK\u003cbr\u003eCD1\u003cbr\u003eViolin Concerto No. 1, Sz 36*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKyung Wha Chung, \u003c\/strong\u003eviolin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChicago Symphony Orchestra\u003cbr\u003eGeorg Solti\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePiano Concerto No. 1, Sz 83*\u003cbr\u003ePiano Concerto No. 2, Sz 95*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePascal Roge, \u003c\/strong\u003epiano\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLondon Symphony Orchestra\u003cbr\u003eWalter Weller\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCD2\u003cbr\u003eViolin Concerto No. 2, Sz 112*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIona Brown,\u003c\/strong\u003eviolin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhilharmonia Orchestra\u003cbr\u003eSimon Rattle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo Portraits, Sz 37\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChantal Juillet\u003c\/strong\u003e, violin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrchestre symphonique de Montreal\u003cbr\u003eCharles Dutoit\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePiano Concerto No. 3, Sz 119*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePascal Roge,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003epiano\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLondon Symphony Orchestra\u003cbr\u003eWalter Weller\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* FIRST RELEASE ON CD\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DECCA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32356310351959,"sku":"028948023202 etC","price":6.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/products\/C-_Users_doughep_Desktop_00028948023202-cover1.jpg?v=1600884063","url":"https:\/\/classicselectworld.com\/de-de\/products\/bartok-violin-concertos-piano-concertos-various","provider":"ClassicSelect World","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
