Review
The Violin Concerto seems to be extremely well played (I have not been able to trace comparative performances - Gawriloff is however a seriously dedicated violinist) has quite a few orchestral coups de theatres with a miniature central movement (of three) for orchestra alone, a rather charming Mendelssohnian accent and some striking effects in choosing orchestral 'spice' against which the soloist is to play. The Duo has charm a plenty and is well worth hearing without being utterly memorable. As with all these discs the recording quality is never less than respectable.

Hans Pfitzner (5 May 1869 – 22 May 1949) was a German composer and self-described anti-modernist. His best known work is the post-Romantic opera Palestrina, loosely based on the life of the sixteenth-century composer Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina. Pfitzner's music, including pieces in all the major genres except the symphonic poem, was respected by contemporaries such as Gustav Mahler and Richard Strauss. His works combine Romantic and Late Romantic elements with extended thematic development, atmospheric music drama, and the intimacy of chamber music. Pfitzner's students included musicians such as Otto Klemperer, Charles Münch and Carl Orff.
