Violin Concertos

Album by Alban Berg & Ludwig van Beethoven & Isabelle Faust & Orchestra Mozart & Claudio Abbado

Violin Concerto is a concerto by Austrian composer Alban Berg, completed in 1935. The work blends late-Romantic lyricism with twelve-tone serial techniques, juxtaposing expressive melodic passages and dense chromatic harmony, and is one of Berg's final works that links the Romantic tradition with early 20th-century serialism.
First released: 6th February 2012
