Carl Nielsen (1865-1931) Complete Concertos
Violin – Clarinet – Flute
Saeka Matsuyama (vln)
John McCaw (Clt)
Jennifer Stinton (Fl)

“The Violin Concerto here appears packed with uproarious character and dreamy but not overheated fantasy. Matsuyama spares nothing in her commitment and her projection of character. This collection is from a repertoire point of view a natural coupling at bargain price. New-comers will do themselves no harm at all by snapping it up” (MusicWeb) “…stunning performance of Nielsen’s still too little known Violin Concerto…..soloist attacks that last movement with an uplifting rhythmic lilt and a certain rustic vigour … (she) adapts perfect intonation and fearlessly conquers the first movement’s virtuoso passages. Given a perfectly idiomatic accompaniment… the result is as fine a version as any.” (©David Hurwitz in Classics Today).
