The Clip Quiz - Violin Concertos

[Brian]

02 could well be Josef Suk?
Are you sure 27 isn't Brahms? Drat. 

30 seems like a piece that I really ought to know. But I have no idea what all the other pieces are ...

You'll have to provide a list of correctly answered/still to be guessed ones for us, Manuel, 'mystery scores' style!

It's in the first post.

Born in 1886, the composer is famous for his many song cycles. The concerto comes from his first stage, when he embraced tonality. After listening to the music of Les Six he shifted to serialism. He also composed a horn concerto, and a cello concerto.

Hm, I listened to 22, and I don't know the work, but I seem to recognize the style of the composer. Not to spoil it for the others - does his name start with an L?

I like the works of this composer very much, so I would be interested in others with the same style. In which L-named composer were you thinking?

Hello, Manuel! I was referring to the Polish composer Karol Lipinski, whose Second Violin Concerto I like very much. He wrote, as far as I know, 4 of them. Very attractive music, as Harry can testify.

Thank you, I never heard any of his works.

Having Lipinski's and Karlowicz's concertos as favs only mean one thing: you guys should stop hanging out with Maciek.

Yes, the greatest living Pole wields much power over our musical tastes!

Sounds interesting, but I cannot download from mediafire. Any other way I can listen to the clippings?

I can upload the files to rapidshare if you want, and give me some time.

Winrar is shareware, but will work forever. And works with .zip and .rar files.

It's not Wieniawski but it's from the same time frame; their countries, however, are different.

Right. The clip comes from a live recording by Aldo Ferraresi and Sir John Barbirolli, I think it was a London concert.

24-Miaskovsky

Feigin plays here. Not my fav, but the one that I happened to have as mp3 in my hard drive.

[The new erato]

32-Shostakovich? 2?

[m_gigena]

32-Shostakovich? 2?

They are both very, very close. But no.
