Description:

This is the second release in the "Sony Classical Masterpieces Collection 1000". This is a collection of violin concertos played by the famous violinist Jascha Heifetz. Korngold, who was forced to flee to the U.S. under the Nazi dictatorship, wrote this concerto for Heifetz, and the sweet melodies that appear throughout the piece have a unique romantic atmosphere that is very appealing. The work, along with the "Spanish Symphony," showcases Heifetz's strong and brilliant technique.
