Violin Concertos
Album by Jean Sibelius & William Walton & Akiko Suwanai & City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra & Sakari Oramo
Violin Concerto in D minor, Op. 47 is a violin concerto by Finnish composer Jean Sibelius, completed in 1904 and revised in 1905. The work is rooted in the late-Romantic tradition, combining demanding virtuosic solo passages with expansive orchestral writing and a distinctive Nordic lyricism and brooding harmonic language, and it occupies a prominent place in both the violin repertoire and Sibelius's output.
