Not without humor, some agree that this concerto was written against, rather than for, the violin, as it is so difficult to play. Its dedicatee, the violinist Joseph Joachim, had indeed obtained some revisions from Brahms. Itzhak Perlman rises to the challenge, taking this major piece of the Romantic violin repertoire to heights of dexterity with wild energy and a keen musical sense. One would expect nothing less from this legendary violinist! Excerpt from the "La Discothèque idéale Fnac" Guide 2016.
