Post Description

One of today's most versatile violinists presents a new account of Paganini's unsurpassed compendium of technical difficulties. Zehetmair plays the caprices as "improvised character pieces" - eloquent, full of temperament and with the greatest rhythmic and sonic flexibility. His extraordinary technical perfection is coupled with a rare musical insight and sense of drama. Zehetmair's ECM recordings - both as soloist and in his quartet - have met with unanimous praise in recent years. Among this year's particularly exciting releases on ECM New Series, this recording is certain to get wide media response. Booklet includes an instructive interview with Zehetmair.
