Work: Violin Concerto no. 3 in B minor, Op.61

From Carlos Simon’s rhythmic energy to Dvořák’s lush melodies, Honeck and the PSO deliver a night of brilliance, with violinist María Dueñas shining in Saint-Saëns. 

Gil Shaham is the outstanding soloist in Saint-Saëns' Third Violin Concerto as a new season gets under way. 

Gabriel Bebeşelea's debut with the RPO brought two composers from his native Romania – George Enescu and Ciprian Porumbescu – and paired them with Mozart and Saint-Saëns in an interesting, albeit patchy concert.
