Gidon Kremer & Kremerata Baltica - [3 DVDs] - Naxos Deutschland

For more than 40 years Gidon Kremer is one of the world's foremost violinists and - thanks to his insatiable curiosity and quest for a new stimuli - one of today's most intriguing musical personalities. In 1997 he gave himself a special present for his fiftieth birthday: his own ensemble, made up of the best young musicians from the Baltic countries - his Kremerata Baltica. "For me its extremely important that I and my Kremerata Baltica identify with the music of our time". This Edition is an outstanding example of his uncommonly extensive repertoire, featuring some of the greatest pieces ever composed from Bach to the whole new world of thirlling 20th century works.
