Virtuoso Voices™ - James Ehnes (Barber’s Invitation)  0:23
December 2010 CD 


[Use this clip to introduce James Ehnes playing the Violin Concerto by Samuel Barber (CBC 5241).  James Ehnes’ complete discography is available at arkivmusic.com.]



SUGGESTED HOST INTRO

The Violin Concerto by Samuel Barber has some sharp and spiky peaks and crevices.  Still, violinist James Ehnes (EH-ness) considers it to be one of the more friendly concertos in the repertoire.



James Ehnes Clip:

“The atmosphere, the mood is so inviting, so lush in the way that a beautiful, beautiful landscape is lush.  It’s the type of piece that I think works very well with audiences that might not necessarily be a typical classical music audience because it immediately draws them into the performance.”



SUGGESTED HOST OUTRO

Violinist James Ehnes (EH-ness) and Samuel Barber invite you to enjoy this performance of the Barber Violin Concerto.  Bramwell Tovey conducts the Vancouver Symphony.
