A supreme Paganini, woven together with exquisite technique and elegance.
This is a masterpiece by violinist Henryk Szeryng, performed with the London Symphony Orchestra. Combining stunning technique with beautiful composition, the performance is highly polished, imbued with brilliance and deep lyricism.
Henryk Szeryng's performance perfectly blends his meticulous technique and musicality. He portrays the notoriously difficult Paganini No. 3 with calm control and passionate expression. The notes begin clearly, and the flow of the melody is natural and breathtaking. The orchestra, conducted by Gibson, supports the soloist with a rich sound, creating a sense of tension and elegance throughout. This is an intelligent and brilliant performance that highlights the beauty of the work itself, rather than flaunting technique.
