This album contains two of the Romantic Era's neglected treasures. Henryk Wieniawski, though little known today, was a potent figure in the 19th century, an almost unparalleled virtuoso violinist and a respected composer. His D minor concerto, op. 22, was premiered in St. Petersburg in 1862 and is a Romantic-era treasure. Pablo de Sarasate's 'Zigeunerweisen' ('Gypsy ways') is a wonderful fantasia on Romany themes composed in 1878. Both of these concerti are wonderful and often overlooked. But take our advice and discover them—they will not disappoint!

The sheet music comes with CD recordings of the work, one version with the solo part and accompaniment, and one with just the accompaniment for you to play along to. Geoffrey Applegate is the violin soloist with the Stuttgart Symphony Orchestra conducted by Emil Kahn.
