Violin Concertos
Album by Alban Berg & Leoš Janáček & Karl Amadeus Hartmann & Thomas Zehetmair & Philharmonia Orchestra & Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen & Heinz Holliger
The Violin Concerto is a concerto for violin and orchestra by Austrian composer Alban Berg, composed in 1935. The work blends twelve-tone serial techniques with late-Romantic lyricism and expressive gestures, representing a late-period synthesis in Berg's output and serving as an example of how serialism was adapted for expressive, tonal-leaning concert music in the 20th century.
