Rimsky-Korsakov
CAPRICCIO ESPAGNOL, Op.34
Anshel Brusilow (solo violin)
Philadelphia Orchestra -- Eugene Ormandy
Sony Classical 1959 1962 1966 / 2002
Notes: "Rimsky-Korsakov composed the five movement 'Capriccio Espangnol' in 1887. It was first performed, under the baton of the composer, in St. Petersburg on November 12 of that year. Both popular and critical response was overwhelmingly positive. Tchaikovsky spoke of it as a masterpiece, reserving particular praise for the instrumentation."
This work is one of the pieces that drew me to classical music. Back in the days of the 101 Strings. Way, way back, when American Orchestras made recordings.
