Menotti: Violin Concerto, Death Of Orpheus, Etc / Hickox
For all his successes on the operatic stage, Menotti has never won the same reputation in the field of instrumental music. As the 'Violin Concerto' on this disc reveals, however, Menotti's orchestral music is as concerned with creating vivid, dramatic images as are any of his operas. Recorded in: Teatro Nuovo, Spoleto, Italy 4 & 5 July 2001 Producer(s) Ralph Couzens (Recording) Aidan Oliver (Assistant) Sound Engineer(s) Ralph Couzens Christopher Brooke (Assistant)
