When two of the greats of contemporary classical music perform together, expectations are high. Dutch violinist Janine Jansen's first concert album after a nine-year hiatus was eagerly awaited - and delighted fans and critics alike.
On her European tour with conductor Klaus Mäkela and the Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra, she performed violin concertos by Sibelius and Prokofiev. Jansen is undoubtedly one of the elite in her field, as she proves on this recording, especially with her magnificent interpretation of Sibelius.
