Heifetz:Po:Walton:Lapo - Violin Concerto/ Violin Concerto No. 2

William Walton's Violin Concerto, heard here in its revised version in a now legendary recording conducted by the composer, was undoubtedly Jascha Heifetz's most successful commission. Like the other Romantic works on his disc by Camille Saint-Saens and Christian Sinding, it perfectly suited Heifetz's polished elegance and scintillating virtuosity.
