The Art of Erica Morini
13CD set Box Set
Erica Morini gave her first concert 1918 in Berlin at the age of 14 under Furtwängler. In the following years she performed with the Gewandhausorchester and the Wiener Philharmoniker.
In 1921 she started her successful US Tour with a concert at Carnegie Hall. Morini focused on the classical romantic violin repertoire. This collection brings together her recordings for Westminster and Deutsche Grammophon. The boxset includes 13 CDs, each one highlighting a different facet of Morini's repertoire. From Mozart's delicate violin sonatas to the dramatic intensity of Brahms and Beethoven, Morini's interpretations are unparalleled in their emotional depth and technical precision.
