Liner notes in English and German. No translator of liner notes mentioned.This CD release "Tartini / Paganini / Diabelli At Calke Abbey" brings together virtuosic and expressive works from three key composers of the violin repertoire, interpreted by Jean-Jacques Kantorow and Anthea Gifford. The program focuses on the rich tradition of 18th- and 19th-century violin literature, combining fiery brilliance with intimate lyricism. Recorded in the distinctive acoustic atmosphere suggested by the title, the album offers an almost chamber-like closeness, allowing every nuance of bowing, phrasing and dynamic contrast to unfold. Listeners can expect a blend of elegant baroque-classical lines from Tartini, the dazzling technical fireworks of Paganini and the charming, finely crafted pieces of Diabelli, all shaped into a coherent musical journey.
Jean-Jacques Kantorow, an internationally acclaimed violinist and conductor, is known for his refined tone, stylistic versatility and deep musical insight. Over the course of his long career he has built a reputation for intelligent, emotionally resonant interpretations, as well as for a broad repertoire that spans baroque to contemporary music. Anthea Gifford complements him with sensitive, finely balanced playing, creating a dialogue that is both technically assured and musically engaging. Together they illuminate the different stylistic worlds of Tartini, Paganini and Diabelli, highlighting both their contrasts and their underlying connections.

Whether you are especially drawn to the poetic world of Tartini, the legendary bravura of Paganini or the elegant charm of Diabelli, this CD offers a cohesive portrait of a rich musical era, realized by two artists with a strong sense of style and musical narrative. | | | No. of tracks: |
