Violinist
Francesca Dego
has been known mostly for virtuoso repertory and for smaller lyrical works, but here, entering mid-career, she takes on a pair of hefty Romantic concertos, ably supported by the
BBC Symphony Orchestra
and its principal guest conductor,
Dalia Stasevska
. There is a great deal to recommend the album, which landed on classical best-seller charts in early 2024. The
Brahms
Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 77
, and

, may seem an odd pair, with the

;
seems to be trying to bring it closer to
