NIELSEN & TCHAIKOVSKY: VIOLIN CONCERTOS

“The prodigious Norwegian Vilde Frang lights up the underplayed Nielsen like a burst of Aurora borealis. The Danish national orchestra with Elvind Gullberg Jensen add all the right colours to the backdrop; it is hard to recall hearing the work more aptly performed”
NORMAN LEBRECHT

“Norwegian violinist Vilde Frang showcases more of her striking imagination and fastidious care on this new release... For a yardstick on Frang's musical intellect, try her cadenzas. They seem to contain a world of philosophy and fortitude and are delivered with unfailing spaciousness and poise”
BBC ONLINE

“Tchaikovsky, a warhorse concerto if there ever was one, [is] ridden here with such a beguilingly fresh, personal and poetic touch that we seem to be hearing the work for the first time. Frang shows her mettle as soon as she touches Tchaikovsky's first principal theme, inflected with dynamic clips and weavings guaranteed to make any listener sit up”
THE TIMES

“Die junge norwegische Geigerin Vilde Frang engagiert sich gleichermaßen für beide Werke, geigerisch enorm souverän, risikobereit und eigenwillig expressiv”
