Mozart : Violin Concertos 1 & 3
Mozart: Sinfonia Concertante
Renaud Capucon, Antoine Tamestit
Scottish Chamber Orchestra, Louis Langrée
(Virgin Classics 216 6212)
The violinist Renaud Capuçon has a substantial catalogue on Virgin Classics, but this is only the second CD to focus on him in solo concertos the first, the Mendelssohn and Schumann concertos was released in 2004. That being said, he has recorded Larbre des songes, a de facto concerto, for a disc of works by the contemporary composer Dutilleux, and has also collaborated with Martha Argerich and Mischa Maisky in Beethovens Triple Concerto for EMI Classics, and, back on Virgin Classics, with his brother, Gautier in Brahms Double Concerto.
This new release sees him in two of Mozarts solo concertos and the Sinfonia concertante with viola-player Antoine Tamestit, another outstanding French instrumentalist of the younger generation.

I enjoy these presentations not only for the glorious music but also because they add the human, personal element to the performances.

Yes, and that's what a lot of performances lack... at least in my point of view. Anyways, congratulations to these fantastic musicians!
