Brahms: Hungarian Dances, WoO 1; Joachim: Variations in E minor / Hagai Shaham, Arnon Erez

Remarks:

The forty-year friendship between composer Johannes Brahms and violinist Joseph Joachim was one of the most significant and fruitful collaborations in nineteenth-century music. Their profound admiration of each other's artistry bore sustained creative fruit on Brahms' side, of which his Violin Concerto and Double Concerto are only the most famous examples. Joachim's less-heard violin transcriptions of the famous Hungarian Dances - which Brahms originally wrote for piano duet or solo piano - are superbly idiomatic, yet technically challenging for any violinist, constituting a kind of "Gypsy violin school." The brilliant Israeli violinist Hagai Shaham, acclaimed for his Jene Hubay recordings, is the ideal champion of this dazzling repertoire.
