Recording of the Month

Gidon Kremer (violin)

Kremerata Baltica, City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla

Symphony No. 2 for string orchestra, Op. 30
Symphony No. 21, Op. 152, Kaddish

"The appearance of this performance on a major prestige label will surely prove one of the highlights of this, his centenary year...It takes a performance of fierce concentration and absolute dedication to ensure this music’s hold on an audience...the CBSO, with its newly appointed fireball Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla, is teamed up with Kremerata Baltica, lending extraordinary depth and power to the string sound...All in all, this has to be one of the most important symphonic releases of the year." - Gramophone Magazine, June 2019.
