Menuhin Festival Orchestra
Although neglected by some, Giovanni Battista Viotti was an international violin superstar at the turn of the nineteenth century, travelling throughout Europe and holding high offices in the most prestigious musical institutions. This recording by Yehudi Menuhin presents Viotti’s most famous violin concertos, notably the sixteenth in a version arranged by Mozart himself (who added brass parts). It also includes the digital premiere of a lovely duet featuring Gioconda De Vito.
