01. I. Allegro non troppo
02. II. Adagio

04. Suk: Fantasy in G Minor for Violin & Orchestra, Op. 24
Award winning Dutch violinist Liza Feschtman brings a passionate program of Johannes Brahms & Josef Suk. Brahms’ Violin Concerto was first premiered by Joseph Joachim whom the work was dedicated and performed by. Joachim was both a supporter of the young man’s musical career and a constructive and often blunt critic, he continued to perform the concerto for many years after its original debut.
Josef Suk was one of the leading composers of the early 1900s, writing his Fantasy in 1902-3, a piece brimming with melancholy and owed its compositional roots to Brahms and Dvořák.
