专辑简介
Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto, Op.35 of 1878 had a rather tumultuous journey from the work’s conception to the popularity it enjoys today. Tchaikovsky completed the first sketches very quickly while holidaying in the Swiss resort of Clarens on the shores of Lake Geneva. The intended dedicatee was the young violinist Iosif Kotek, a former student of Tchaikovsky’s at the Moscow Conservatory who was greatly admired by the composer; it is possible that they were conducting a clandestine relationship. Kotek also mediated between Tchaikovsky and Nadhezha von Meck, who would become his patroness and confidante, during the early stages of their acquaintance. He was not sufficiently well known to premiere the concerto, however, so Tchaikovsky approached Leopold Auer to be its dedicatee. Auer was sniffy, dismissing the piece as “unviolinistic” and only revising his opinion in the last year of the composer’s life. Eventually, Adolph Brodsky premiered the Violin Concerto in Vienna in 1881, but its early success was hindered when the nfluential critic Eduard Hanslick denounced it with considerable vehemence. Thankfully, it has outlived the criticism, and remains one of Tchaikovsky’s best-loved pieces.
