Michael Barenboim plays Bart贸k's Second Violin Concerto in Liverpool

Michael Barenboim is the soloist in Bart贸k's second violin concerto, performed alongside Kod谩ly's Dances of Gal谩nta and Dvo艡谩k's Seventh Symphony.

Fiery folk tunes meet the orchestra 鈥 conductor Domingo Hindoyan dives deep into a whirlwind of colour and rhythm, straight from the untamed musical imagination of Zolt谩n Kod谩ly. A different kind of passion drives Bart贸k鈥檚 Second Violin Concerto, and violinist Michael Barenboim is just the artist to uncover both its poetry and its inner fire. Meanwhile, if you enjoy Dvo艡谩k鈥檚 鈥楴ew World鈥 symphony, you simply have to hear the Seventh. This tempestuous portrait of a nation awakening to freedom packs a serious emotional punch.

Recorded at Liverpool Philharmonic Hall on 6th February 2025.

Presented by Penny Gore.
