Armenian composer Aram Khachaturian’s Violin Concerto in D minor is a colored and sensual piece. Full of eastern influences and harmonies, it was first composed for David Oistrakh who performed it in 1940. Since then, the piece has traveled all over the world, and has become almost as famous as Khachaturian’s signature composition, “Saber Dance”. Appealing and exuberant, Khachaturian’s concerto is peppered with folk melodies. The violinist Antje Weithaas, plays it, in a truly romantic tradition, with passion and melancholy. Also included in the record is Khachaturian’s Concert-Rhapsody, a piece written in 1961 for Leonid Kogan, and a distant cousin to Maurice Ravel’s Tzigane. When first performed, Concert-Rhapsody glorified its dedicatee’s virtuosity. Antje Weithaas’s rendition goes well beyond its first intention, making it an inspiring universal piece of work. © François Hudry/Qobuz
