Abstract

RECORDING OF THE MONTH EDITOR'S PICK Isabelle Faust, violin; Les Siècles, François-Xavier Roth, cond. When Stravinsky imprinted the four-movement Violin Concerto's middle two "arias" with his unique baroque-meetsmodernism- meets-Russian-folk-music language, he ensured that you would have difficulty getting the beginning of Aria II out of your head. As on other period instrument recordings from Les Siècles, conductor François-Xavier Roth has consciously scrubbed away a century or more of what he considers inauthentic performance practice, with the goal of reproducing what Stravinsky likely expected to hear.
