A major work of one of the world's most celebrated living composers, Georg Friedrich Haas, performed by violinist Miranda Cuckson, will be released worldwide digitally and in CD format on November 21, 2025 on Urlicht AudioVisual. Violin Concerto No. 2 was written in 2017 for Miranda Cuckson, with whom the composer has long collaborated, and premiered that year with the Tokyo Symphony Orchestra conducted by Ilan Volkov. The present recording features her live performance of Violin Concerto No. 2 at Vienna's legendary Musikverein with the ORF Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra conducted by Markus Poschner, recorded in concert on November 24, 2023, coupled with her recording of de terrae fine for violin solo, originally released in 2013.Miranda has written, "Georg is one of the great musicians of our time and a warm person and friend. The emotion in his music has meant so much to me since meeting him so many years ago as an ensemble player and playing his music for him - his violin piece 'de terrae fine', the US premiere of 'in vain', and other works. I've since performed 'de terrae fine' many times. At the release concert for my album including 'de terrae fine', I was beyond thrilled when he told me he wanted to write a concerto for me."Gene Gaudette, general manager of Urlicht AudioVisual, writes, "Georg Friedrich Haas is one of today's leading composers, and his music is seeing high profile performances in North America and Europe this season. The Concerto is one of the finest such works I have heard from this century - a beautiful, passionate, powerful work with enormous narrative pull - and I am very excited the Urlicht AudioVisual will be issuing the world premiere recording of this work, captured live in concert."
