Mathis der Maler: Violin Concerto No. 1 Lindberg (+1 More)

Public

Violin Concerto No. 1

Mathis der Maler (symphony)

Approved

Magnus Lindberg's Violin Concerto has attracted a forest of respectful reviews that compare it favourably to its iconic brethren: “charged with a Sibelius-like sense of radiating light” (The Times) and “manages to balance poetry with virtuosity, in ways that can almost stand comparison with Berg” (Gramophone).
Paul Hindemith derived a robust symphony from his opera Mathis der Maler that was enthusiastically welcomed by the public in Berlin in 1934. Just a month after its premiere, the Nazi regime responded and blacklisted the magnificent symphony, the opera and their composer.
