Playlist for 12th December – 20th century Violin Concertos Part 2 (of3)

 Last week I presented part one of what I said was going to be a 2 part theme based around  20^th Century Violin Concertos and the show focused on Eastern European and Russian composers.  In working on shortlisting pieces for the second show I struggled to reduce my choices down to only a second show so I’m expanding this theme to 3 shows and this week will feature Middle European Works and next week will focus on British and American works.
