These four works by Hindemith can be considered as full-bodied concertos for violin, viola, viola d'amore and organ. These work feature four young talented soloists, Stephen Waarts, Rimothy Ridout, Ziyu Shenand Christian Schmitt. Hindemith's Kammermusik No. 4 ('Violin Concerto') is scored for a larger orchestra than it's three predecessors and includes 24 instrumentalists. Kammermusik No. 5 ('Viola Concerto') the composer premiered himself by playing the solo part. In total, Hindemith performed this work for 85 times during the next 11 years! In a letter, Hindemith described the viola d'amore as \"the most beautiful thing that you can imagine in sound\". The composer fell in love with the instrument and wrote his Kammermusik No. 6 with this instrument in mind. Hindemith's final Kammermusik (No. 7) was written to a commission by the Southwest German Radio: the premiere of this Organ Concerto was transmitted live in 1928. The radio broadcast had a decisive role in the composer's choice of instrumentation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Kronberg Academy Soloists Schleswig-Holstein Festival Orchestra Eschenbach","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39545235963975,"sku":"40656540","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/3842159-2653307.jpg?v=1711595354","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/hindemith-eschenbach-kammermusik-2","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
