Schumann: Violin Concerto, Symphony No. 1 & Phantasie

In 2012, Thomas Zehetmair was appointed the Orchestre de Chambre's principal conductor and artistic advisor and on this recording does double duty as both soloist and conductor, revealing how urgent and convincing Robert Schumann's music can be when the performers enter into its spirit. This insightful approach has already been demonstrated - his Quartet's recording of two Schumann string quartets won prizes including the 2003 Gramophone Award as Album of the Year.
