Mendelssohn, Yehudi Menuhin - Concerto In E Minor Concerto In D Minor
Review by Tamara Duijvestijn
The album Concerto In E Minor Concerto In D Minor by Mendelssohn, Yehudi Menuhin is a masterpiece of classical music. The album features two of Mendelssohn's most famous works, the Concerto in E Minor and the Concerto in D Minor. Yehudi Menuhin, one of the greatest violinists of the 20th century, delivers a stunning performance, bringing out the beauty and complexity of the compositions.
In the Concerto in E Minor, Menuhin's playing is fluid and expressive, capturing the melancholic and emotional character of the piece. The orchestration is rich, with the London Symphony Orchestra providing a powerful and dynamic accompaniment. The second movement, with its lyrical and serene melody, is particularly beautiful, and Menuhin's delicate and nuanced playing is a joy to listen to.
The Concerto in D Minor is a more energetic and virtuosic work, and Menuhin rises to the challenge with his technical mastery and impeccable phrasing. The orchestra provides a lively and dramatic backdrop, creating a sense of tension and excitement. The third movement is a highlight, with its fast-paced and intricate violin solo, which Menuhin delivers with breathtaking precision and skill.

I love these old more "raw" style recordings. Thanks for putting it up, especially for the chance to hear the d minor.

The e minor concerto was recorded 25th-26th May 1952, Jesus Christus Kirche, Berlin; de d minor concerto was a "discovery" by Menuhin, and premiered the concerto February 4, 1952 in Carnegie Hall. About one week later he recorded it. That recording was his debut as a conductor, by the way. Classic RCA LM series record! Thanks for uploading :-) Rolf, Record collector, Netherlands
