Nicola Benedetti | Elgar
On her new album, GRAMMY-winning violinist Nicola Benedetti performs music by Britain's best-loved composer: Edward Elgar. The centrepiece is his Violin Concerto, the famous piece from the Romantic repertoire. Considered one of the most technically demanding violin concertos, it is a marathon of just under an hour. Opposite this are three short works for violin and piano: Salut d'Amour, Sospiri and Chanson de Nuit.
