David Garrett, Orchestra the Prezent, Franck van der Heijden ICONIC Limited Vinyl 2LP Set
Overview:
“The inspiration behind this album was the golden age of the star violinist. Players such as Heifetz, Kreisler, Francescatti, Grumiaux and, of course, the great Yehudi Menuhin are all idols of mine, and that’s why I chose the title Iconic” - David Garrett
Inspired by the legendary violinists whose dazzling showpieces and heart-melting melodies Garrett fell in love with as a child, Iconic includes more than twenty tracks including brilliant showpieces, soulful melodies, and duets with Andrea Bocelli, Itzhak Perlman, Till Bronner and Cocomi. Music by Bach, Dvořák, Gluck, Kreisler, Mendelssohn and Schumann, among many others, is presented in arrangements for violin, guitar and orchestra.
