This is a great CD. Buy it! You'll love the melodies and listen to every track over and over (as I did).

4 out of 5 stars Maximum Indulgence!.......2002-10-02

DeBeroit, teacher of the wonderful Vieuxtemps...

I love this man, More people should know about his music! Like Paganini, these concertos offer great melodies in addition to difficult technical demands. Listening to them, maybe one can listen for Paganini's influence (what Paganini did with the violin must have redefined the standatd for violin playing at the time).

The ninth concerto here is one of the most over-looked works in the entire violin repitoire.

I remember the first time I heard Nishizaki on the radio and wondering who it was. I have always enjoyed Nishizaki's playing on the naxos label. Here Nishizaki effectively shows yet again her ability to play convincingly and with a sweet tone.

Overall, this is a great recording of some very overlooked violin music. I only really do a cd review if I have something for a long time and still think its great after many listening sessions. I give this CD four stars because concertos one and eight only partially held my attention.

Anyone who buys this CD will be indulging their violin cravings, and in doing so they can expect to be presented with some strong musical substance played with color and finesse.

For more deBeroit, get Perlman's great CD, "Concertos from my Childhood" which contains "Scene de Ballet". If you like this cd alot also try the first five concertos of Vieuxtemps, you will not be disappointed.

5 out of 5 stars masterful exhaustive violin study...good orchestral build.......1998-10-16

The performance is almost of the order of progression of a Paganini concerto. This piece includes much of the range voice and techniques that a violin can be made to accomplish. The concerto "story" is secondary to the violin theatrics ... the listner will be pleased with most passages. Easily heard logical progression of moods and expression. Strong fiddle skills to be appreciated.

4 out of 5 stars Excellent for listening if learning the concerto.......1998-10-13

This recording of the de Beriot violin concertos is technically superb. If you are a violinist learning any of the three concertos featured, this is an excellent aid. However, if you are not a violinist, and are just looking for something to listen to, I feel it is a little dry musically speaking, though it is otherwise flawless.

4 out of 5 stars First Time apearances of some of these works on CD.......2007-01-23

CPO has done a service in issuing this album of Beriot Violin Concerti and I hope that they complete the series with all ten of the composer's Violin Concerti. There is a typo in the Opus Number of Concerto No. 7 in G: it is Op. 76 not 73. Concerto No. 4 makes its debut for the first time in any format. The violinist, Laurent Breuninger, does a fine job with these works although purists may quibble about some of the showy effects demonstrated in Violin Concerto No. 2. I would have recommended this disc as a five star item except for the typo mentioned earlier which is consistent wherever the concerto is mentioned in the liner notes.
