Tchaikovsky, Pyotr - Violin Concerto - Fischer, Julia (violin)

Julia Fischer's 2006 recording of Tchaikovsky's violin concerto has become a benchmark alongside other gems by the composer. It not only highlights Fischer's exceptional skill, but also her unique rapport with the late Yakov Kreizberg, who conducts the Russian National Orchestra and accompanies her on the piano in Souvenir d'un lieu cher. Following its reissue in 2016 and on vinyl in 2019, this legendary recording now returns in a more affordable stereo version. One of the world's leading violinists, Julia Fischer is a versatile musician who is also known for her exceptional abilities as a concert pianist, chamber musician, and violin teacher. Julia Fischer has received numerous awards, including the German Order of Merit, the Bavarian Maximilian Order, the Gramophone Award, and the German Culture Prize. She plays a violin by Giovanni Battista Guadagnini (1742) and an instrument made by Phillipp Augustin (2018).
