Nardini e minor Violin Concerto Jan Tomasow violin/conductor Vienna State Opera Chamber Orchestra

Jan Tomasow leading the Chamber Orchestra of the Vienna State Opera and playing the violin solo Movements: Allegro moderato Andante cantabile Allegro giocoso beautifully remastered STEREO version Pietro Nardini was born in Livorno, Italy on April 12, 1722 and died in Florence, Italy on May 7, 1793. He was a violin and composition student of the master Guiseppe Tartini and was considered to be Tartini's favorite student. Nardini was a violinist, conductor, as well as a composer. His beautiful violin tone was recognized by no less than Leopold Mozart. Among Nardini's compositions are sonatas, chamber music (including six string quartets and six violin duets) plus four violin concerti. However, this particular concerto is not totally authentic Nardini. This Concerto is based on and is an adaptation of the Viola Sonata in f minor by Pietro Nardini. (The solo violin part is almost identical to the original viola part). It was actually compiled as we know it today during the romantic period and the has several accompaniments composed in the 19th century. The accompaniment that Jan Tomasow has selected was composed by Emilio Pente and is actually available through IMSLP. This particular accompaniment is definitely the best of all of them and employs advanced compositional techniques such as contrary motion, stepwise bass lines, chromaticism, creative harmonies and above all, it is colorfully orchestrated for flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, 2 French horns and strings. This piece (by today's standards) is considered to be a sort of student concerto from a technical point of view. However, musically, it far surpasses that level when compared to the student concertos of Friedrich Seitz and Jean Baptiste Accolay. This work is indeed loaded with many heartfelt moments. Jan Tomasow was born to Jewish parents in Buenos Aries, Argentina in July 12, 1914 but tragically died at the young age of 47 on November 27, 1961. Maestro Tomasow was noted for Baroque violin concerti, sonatas and pieces such as the Vitali Chaccone. However, Maestro Tomasow made numerous recordings of all styles, many for the Vanguard record label. In the 1950's he served as concertmaster of the Baltimore and Washington National Symphonies. He also was a performer at WGN in Chicago. His violin sound might be described as bright and penetrating but extremely vibrant and heartfelt. It is really a pity that this great artist is long forgotten. Hopefully, the listener will appreciate and recognize this inspired performance of the Nardini E minor Concerto and give this masterpiece the credit it deserves.
