CD HotList: Concertos Review
The resurgence of interest in tonal composition that began with the minimalist rebellion in the 1960s has now fully matured, and is represented by such brilliant young artists as Avner Dorman, who unapologetically draws on influences like the baroque concerto but writes music that is undeniably of its time and place. This wonderful program of three concertos and one concerto grosso, all beautifully performed and recorded, is nearly enough to restore the confidence of the most hardened pessimist in the future of classical music.
