Description:

Here comes a collection of solo works by C. A. Berio (1802-1870), well known for his concertos. Here we have a dazzling performance by Vera Hristova, a rising star from New Zealand who won the first prize at the 2007 Michael Hill International Violin Competition. She has already been active internationally, and many people have high expectations for her talent. Her technique is brilliant, of course, but her delicate, yet beautiful sound with a solid core is extremely attractive. The violin is a 1655 Amati owned by Louis Krasner. ［Comment courtesy of Naxos.
