Interview
Janine Jansen and Daniel Harding in conversation with Sarah Willis
Britten’s Violin Concerto with Janine Jansen and Daniel Harding
It is a mystery why Benjamin Britten’s Violin Concerto is not heard in the concert hall more often. Janine Jansen is one of the work’s most passionate champions and underlines here its outstanding qualities: its demonic virtuosity, refined textures and captivating atmosphere. Daniel Harding also presents Bela Bartók’s Divertimento for Strings and Richard Strauss’ tone poem Tod und Verklärung.
