Beautiful playing of a beautiful concerto with an excellent accompaniment and this is a video with really good camera work. The most neglected of twentieth century concerts and one asks why? Hindemith was a great orchestrator and in this work the violin sings over a very large orchestra. It was first performed at the Concertgebouw in wartime Amsterdam and has never been played there since. It has never been played at the BBC Proms and yet again this year Hindemith’s music is absent from the Prom season. Please come and play this great work in the United Kingdom.
At present, I am afflicted with a dental discomfort, and it is to this performance that I owe a measure of alleviation from my ailment. The therapeutic resonance of the artistic display has, in a fortuitous turn, provided a distraction potent enough to diminish the acute sensations that accompany such an odontalgic episode.

I can see a conductor, he was not given any credits. Why? Valerie - next time just give him a mention as well, alright?
Just forgot it, thanks for pointing it out 😊
Why, he did ok? Normally you only bother to mention the conductor when they scr3w up? 😂
