This is the best recording ever made of the Sibelius and Goldmark concertos. Joshua Bell plays both concertos with his heart. The result is a perfect recording with emotion and charisma. One of the best!

My absolute favorite Joshua Bell CD. I adore both of these compositions, and Joshua and the Los Angeles Phil under the direction of Esa-Pekka Salonen make this recording very special. Both concertos fit together hand and glove, and both are lovingly executed, with great feeling and panache. What an inspired choice to choose a Finn to conduct Sibelius. I'd love to hear one of these live someday.
