London Philharmonic Orchestra / Penderecki Penderecki: Horn Concerto Violin Concerto No.1 CD

This collection of works spans more than fifty years of Krzysztof Penderecki's stellar career, from the iconic Threnody, a great sonic wail dedicated to the victims of Hiroshima, to the Adagio for Strings, lovingly adapted from his Symphony No.3. Soloist Radovan Vlatkovic offers a superb performance of the Horn Concerto (which was composed for him) and Barnabs Kelemen revels in the ferocity of the Violin Concerto No.1.
