Notes & Reviews:

Paul Hindemith (1895-1963) was one of the most under appreciated composers of the 20th-century. Talented and prolific, Hindemith was also a viola virtuoso of the highest order and premiered William Walton's Viola Concerto. More than any other composer, Hindemith understood the viola and wrote some of its most challenging repertoire. "Der Schwanendreher" is a delightful viola concerto with themes based on old German folksongs. Nobuko Imai is considered to be one of the most outstanding viola players of our time. After finishing her studies at the Toho School of Music, Yale University and the Juilliard School, she won the highest prizes at both the Munich and the Geneva international competitions.
