This album features the Berliner Philharmoniker under the direction of Kirill Petrenko, with First Concertmaster Noah Bendix-Balgley as the soloist. It includes Mozart’s Violin Concerto No. 1 in B-flat major, K. 207, and two pieces by Leone Sinigaglia: the Romance, Op. 29, and Rapsodia piemontese, Op. 26. Bendix-Balgley’s performance highlights the vibrant energy of Mozart’s early work, complemented by his own cadenzas. Sinigaglia’s works, influenced by Central European Romanticism and Italian folk traditions, are revived in this recording after decades of neglect. The album aims to honor his legacy and ensure his music is remembered, making it a blend of virtuosic artistry and historical significance.
