Description:

Joseph Lin / Korngold: Violin WorksKorngold, who was also highly active in the field of film music, tends to be somewhat underratedperhaps because his music is simply too beautiful for classical music!? However, thanks to the superb performance by the promising young artist Lin, this album allows listeners to fully appreciate not only its melt-in-your-mouth sweetness but also the seriousness and meticulous craftsmanship of Korngold as a classical composer. Even in his shorter pieces, his musical language is remarkably dense, and this tendency is even more pronounced in his major works like the Violin Sonata. Both the violin and piano parts are filled with the utmost technical difficulty and harmonic complexity (especially in the second movement!), its quite something. It can truly be called the ultimate work of ecstasy.Suite for Violin and Piano Much Ado About Nothing, Op. 11Violin Sonata, Op. 6O
