Sinfonietta in B major, op. 5 / Violin Concerto in D major, op. 35

Album by Erich Wolfgang Korngold & Ulrike-Anima Mathé & Dallas Symphony Orchestra & Andrew Litton

Sinfonietta in B major, Op. 5 and the Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 35 are orchestral works by Erich Wolfgang Korngold, composed in 1912 and 1945 respectively. The Sinfonietta displays Korngold's youthful late-Romantic orchestral vocabulary with lush textures and energetic forms, while the Violin Concerto synthesises his Hollywood-era melodic lyricism with expansive virtuosity and rich orchestral colour, representing his return to concert music after a period working in film.
