Tailoring Scripture With Citation Formulae: Clues About Early Christian Views of The Holy Books And The Holy God

The 2010s have brought an unusually strong succession of recording of Bartók's two violin concertos, each one adding something to the dialogue. The year 2018 brought new recordings by French violinist Renaud Capuçon and Germany's Christian Tetzlaff, the latter with Hannu Lintu leading the Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra. The two recordings contrast sharply, which indicates nothing so much as the continuing richness of these works. Where Capuçon is dreamy, perhaps influenced by Bartók's connections to French Impressionism, Tetzlaff is big, dramatic, and firmly within the German virtuoso tradition.
