1. Fantasia
2. Romanza
3. Improvviso
4. Rondò - Finale
The official documentary video to the new recording of Wolf-Ferrari´s violin concerto, performed by Benjamin Schmid and the Oviedo Filarmonia, conducted by Friedrich Haider. It is incomprehensible why this inspired violin concerto has led a marginalised existence, all but completely neglected in everyday concert life, ever since its first performances. In this video you will find a lot of interesting information which is also available in detail in the CD booklet: 96 pages, 4/4 colour, with editorial and visual material about the work and life of Wolf-Ferrari (German, English).
This exciting new CD in a hinged top-box, also containing an additional DVD with the video documentation, is available at www.farao-classics.de from Sept. 17th, 2012.
Spoken in German | Subtitles available in English, Italian and Japanese
