The New York Times champions Leonidas Kavakos as a wonder on the violin, writing, “The music flowed out of him like a river—big, glistening, and unobstructed, but also tasteful in its frictionless subtleties.” The Greek violinist effortlessly captures Brahms’ desire for lyrical perfection in the composer’s Violin Concerto. Then, Zubin Mehta further explores Brahms’ masterful and Romantic voice with the Second Symphony, featuring one of the most affecting melodies the composer has written.
