Description

A landmark Bartók collection featuring Yehudi Menuhin, whose personal connection to the composer — Bartók envisioned him for the Viola Concerto — gives this set genuine historical significance. Boulez leads an authoritative account of the Second Violin Concerto with the BBC Symphony, while Dorati, one of the great Bartók conductors, rounds out an exceptional roster. Comprehensive coverage of the major string works on a prestigious EMI Classics reissue.
