A contemporary of Brahms, he is also known in Japan as the mentor of Kōsaku Yamada. Furthermore, his interactions with renowned violinists such as Joachim and Sarasate served as a major inspiration for the creation of his numerous violin works. True to Bruch’s words—“The violin can sing melodies more beautifully than the piano, and melody is the very soul of music”—his “Violin Concerto No. 1” is a masterpiece that allows listeners to fully savor his unparalleled melodic beauty.\n\nThis recording also represents the culmination of Hemsing’s lifelong journey with this concerto, a work she has engaged with since childhood. She first performed this piece as a child with the Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra and has continued to perform it over the years.\n\n“Bruch’s Violin Concerto No. 1 is a work that will stay with me throughout my life. I have grown up with this piece. Over the many years I have spent with it, this work has revealed to me a truly diverse range of colors, emotions, and layers of meaning. And now, convinced that my interpretation of this work has reached a stage worthy of recording, I set out to produce this album.”\n(1\/3)\nSony Music\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53255624818977,"sku":"196588134616","price":40.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/196588134616.jpg?v=1786765408","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-de\/products\/196588134616","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
