its so clear, pristine, every note stands out to me, the flow takes my mind on a trip
Im looking for something like this, but with more dynamic and speed, and intensity. I wonder if ill ever find it, maybe i should try creating it.
Sounds like a very good performance of the work.

Just check out the other piece on the disc - the Schnittke Concerto Grosso #5
I'm fond of the Glass Concerto. I'll have to think about what a good follow-on would be. Perhaps the Shostakovich Violin Concerto No. 1.
What other violin concertos are you familiar with?
How about Glass Violin Concerto No.2?

Ditto. One of my favorite Kremer recordings.
Beethoven's Violin Concerto is a work of inspired genius. It was just on the car radio...
For me, the most beautiful, ...... Prokofiev's 1st violin concerto by David Oistrakh .... especially the final movement which melts into a kind of paradise of birdsong. I have never heard anything so unique, movng and beautiful from the violin and orchestra ....

Thanks for reminding me. Listening to it now. :)
Some other wonderful violin concertos to sample:
Carl Nielsen (he only wrote one)
Vagn Holmboe's early Chamber Concerto No. 6
Havergal Brian (again, only one)
Samuel Barber (one of the most luscious VCs that I know, especially in the first two movements)
I like the Barber and agree about the first two movements - other favourites are those written by:
David Morgan
Allan Pettersson (No.2 - one of the greatest ever IMO)
Malcolm Williamson (especially the last movement)
Peterson-Berger
Shostakovich (1 and 2)
Miaskovsky

I have the Morgan concerto coupled with the Fricker and Don Banks concertos on a Lyrita CD (unfortunately one that doesn't seem to be streaming). The Fricker concerto is one of his most approachable works. I love the Miaskovsky concerto, one of his best works. I'll have to hunt down the Peterson-Berger.
