Well, I’m guessing that Prokofiev and Glazunov are not ideal for introducing a novice to violin concerto. That is to say, I found Prokofiev a challenging listen. Glazunov was more accessible and reminded me of romantic classic black and white movies.
This I liked. I am a fan of violin concertos and hasn’t heard this one before. In the interests of full disclosure I have this 5* but in reality with have given it 4* if it were an option. I just felt ‘meh’ overly harsh.
Consider that I’m really just looking for three bins. Good. Indifferent. Bad. The stars allow me to play statistical games later by providing equal spread. I could have used one to three stars as easily but felt that we were probably more used to the 1-5 rating. Just toss it into the bin that most closely aligns with your reaction.
