Bach, Concerto for three Violins and Orchestra (Mozartwoche 2000)

Synopsis

"Hallmarks of this chamber ensemble are its youthful liveliness and enthusiastic commitment to expressing the composer's intentions as vividly as possible" wrote the leading German daily Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung about the "Bayerische Kammerphilharmonie". Founded in 1990, this ensemble consists of young musicians who devote themselves above all to non-repertoire works, contemporary music and imaginative musical projects. This special concert recorded at the Mozartwoche 2000 reflects the ensemble's interest in showcasing not only the talent of gifted young soloists, but also the rare and unique instruments on which they are playing. Under the distinguished American conductor Philip Greenberg, the ensemble performs J.S. Bach's Concerto for three violins and orchestra with Dmitri Makhtin, Igor Malinovsky and the widely noted young French violinist and winner of the "European Cultural Award" David Grimal as soloists on priceless violins dating from the early 18th century. Grimal plays the Antonio Stradivari "ex Roederer", Cremona, 1710; Makhtin the Giuseppe Guarneri del Gesù, "Lord Coke", Cremona, 1744; Malinovsky the Carlo Bergonzi, Cremona, 1732.
