KHACHATURIAN’S VIOLIN CONCERTO

The only criticism of the Khachaturian Violin Concerto is that it might just be “a little too much fun”—and Nemanja Radulovic, who has been taking the classical music world by storm, is exactly the right violinist to bring out its full range of delights. Bartók’s perfectly constructed Concerto for Orchestra gives each instrument moments to shine and Kaija Saariaho’s luminous Winter Sky is a gem of otherworldly beauty.
