Alina Ibragimova - Violin Concertos

Diese Aufnahme hebt sich erfrischend aus der Vielzahl vergangener Aufnahmen heraus:- Alina Ibragimova spielt frisch, lebendig und zupackend, sie sprüht geradezu voll Musikalität- Interpretation: alles andere als nüchtern-historisierend, sondern mit faszinierendem Gefühlsspektrum- Orchester und Solistin beherrschen die barocke Dialogform perfekt, ein Disput auf höchstem Niveau- ein hervorragender Lautenist schafft ein wunderbar stimmiges und fantasievolles Continuo- die orchestrale Spielfreude ist mitreißend- die Aufnahmetechnik ist einwandfrei und erschafft sauber artikulierte Klangstrukturen... Fazit: SEHR EMPFEHLENSWERT !!!!

Ибрагимова superb as always

Buy this - you won't regret it.I bought her recordings of the solo partitas & sonatas - fabulous - & at the time I wondered how someone so young could play with such intellectual & emotional depth, let alone the technical command. Then I saw her perform the same works over 2 late nights at the Proms'15 - the best 2 prom performances I have ever been to, played with a commitment and intensity of understanding & astounding technique I thought was generally unsurpassed - fantastic music-making.Now the violin concertos & some transcriptions - fantastic again, I love the feeling of immediacy, naturalness and a sense of an improvisatory approach, and maybe the acknowledgment of Bach's immersion in Italian music, this performance feels so much more alive - 'live' - than any other performance I can recall of these works. There's a community of musicians playing here with a shared sense of an idiom, not so much an orchestra and then a solo performer overlaying all with their own 'interpretation'.We will never really know how musicians played in the Eighteenth century, but maybe in this performance the freedom, a sense of the complete command of an idiom and a 'feel' evident here might be near enough to some aspects of that tradition. Alina Ibragimova plays with a level of ease and lightly-born authority which might characterize someone steeped in those playing traditions - along with great depth, she can also make Bach feel light, naturally rhythmic and entertaining when needed.What can one really say in praise of someone with such an overwhelming innate musicality, such a formidable technique, a wonderful intellectual grasp of the music and such an integrity of approach to performing music - Alina Ibragimova's Bach should be listened to often - she shows you parts others do not reach - what next will she produce? An exciting and innovative musician and one to watch out for and listen to.Thank you to all involved in producing this recording.

Best price, fast service.

What can I say, if you enjoy Bach, get this recording - both the recording and playing > 5 out of five.
