Since 1990, the Swiss Orpheum Foundation for the Advancement of Young Soloists has been supporting musicians from all over the world, helping them to get early performing opportunities in a professional environment where they can work with top-class artistic partners. This provides these young musicians with important experience, and can provide decisive impetus on their path to a successful career.
The present album is the fourth in our edition, and is devoted entirely to the œuvre of the German late-Romantic composer Max Bruch. Apart from his famous First Violin Concerto and a few other individual works, Bruch’s compositions remain little known to this day, even though they are really “pearls of the repertoire”; as Howard Gri ths says. It was our good fortune that these pearls include two double concertos, because this means we can here present ve Orpheum Soloists. The works and soloists were carefully chosen to match each other; thus we here feature the double concertos for two pianos and for clarinet and viola respectively, and the Adagio appassionato for violin and orchestra.
