[Mr. Lin]

I'll have to keep an eye open for this then. I've never heard Schoenberg's V.C.

A quote from a review on the back of the CD case calls Schoenberg's Violin Concerto "thorny," which I think is apt. But there's much more to it than that, it's just one of those pieces you have to listen to carefully, like most of Schoenberg's music.

I prefer Hahn's interpretation of Schoenberg's violin concerto, it's tighter, more focused. The recordings on this disc are all excellent though, and the sound is good.
