This week, we would like to showcase the exceptional talents of violinist Rachel Barton Pine – and also highlight the unique benefits of listening to classical music on the Internet. Click here and listen to Barton Pine play Brahms' Violin Concerto – not just one, but two versions of it! The first one, with the more traditional Joachim cadenza at the end of the first movement, and the second – Rachel's own. The cadenza starts 19 minutes 11 seconds into the performance. You can set the player at exactly that point to compare, or listen to the whole concerto from start to finish. The Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Carlos Kalmar partner with Rachel in this wonderful performance, which was provided to us by Cedille Records.
