This new release is a fully loaded album with a unique combo of violin concertos by Johannes Brahms and his contemporary friends, Amanda Maier and Julius RÃ¶ntgen. Furthermore, the album includes a brand-new Brahms cadenza, written by award-winning Swedish composer, Mats Larsson Gothe. This is the first Swedish studio recording of Brahms's concerto with one of Sweden's foremost violinists, Cecilia Zilliacus, MalmÃ¶ Symphony Orchestra, and renowned Estonian conductor, Kristiina Poska. "Cecilia is extremely musical and living proof that it's always possible to pursue unusual ideas." (The Strad, 2018) Over the years, audiences have embraced Cecilia Zilliacus' equally tantalizing and warm interpretations of everything from the great classical and romantic works to contemporary chamber music and collaborations across genres - from the most prominent symphony orchestras, conductors and composers in Europe, to jazz musicians, folk musicians, singer song-writers and many others.
