Valeriy Sokolov – Shor: Composer’s Notebook Vol. 5 [CD]

Description

Alexey Shor’s music is regularly performed at some of the world’s most prestigious concert halls. His popularity comes from a signature style that includes neo-Classical clarity with a strong emphasis on lyricism and traditional harmonies, as can be heard in his First Violin Concerto. The Second and Fifth Violin Concertos are works that explore a spectrum of emotions, from profound sadness and loss, to exhilarating and uplifting passions, both of which require high levels of virtuosity from both soloist and orchestra.
