World Premiere of English composer Andrew WebbMitchell's fascinating Violin Concerto. Elizabeth BasoffDarskaja is soloist with Volker Hartung conducting his Cologne New Philharmonic Orchestra.
The concert is named after a female freedom fighter, a mother of two, who died in 2014 at the Battle of Kobane in the battles against the IS, Deilar Kanj Khamis, known by the nom de guerre Arin Mirkan, now a heroine with the Kurdish people.
This great violin concerto is in traditional symphonic form, heroic and romantic in style.
The British composer Andrew WebbMitchell is an exception as one of the most talented artists of our time. Soloist is the RussianAmerican violinist Elisabeth BasoffDarsakaja, who already had an overwhelming success with the Cologne New Philharmonic Orchestra in the Kölner Philharmonie Concert Hall, conducted by Volker Hartung.
