Barber is so great! He is able to redefine what a violin concerto must be in his own term... Poetry rule over music here, like spirit rule over music in his quatuor adagio ...
If not, why am i able to put these pieces all along with Bach, Beethoven , Mozart and few others giants ?
Isaac Stern so much of a poet here....
And Bernstein the right maestro so much times, here too...
Incredible original creation... With all other musicians sounding like walking gods...
My favorite composer is Bach for sure for my day to day life...
But nothing can beat the Barber adagio with Bernstein if someone dream about the meaning of death...Listen to it ....
