Under the direction of its chief conductor Alexander Liebreich, the National Symphony Orchestra of Polish Radio (NOSPR) is the leading ensemble in the country and is one of Europe's major radio orchestras. As cultural ambassadors with a rich tradition, the orchestra has made its mark through performances of Polish composers. On this recording, Karol Szymanowski's 'Violin Concerto', played by Finnish violin virtuoso Elina Vähälä, is paired with the impressive 'Lyric Symphony' of Austrian composer and conductor Alexander von Zemlinsky that builds a bridge between lyric poetry and the grand orchestral symphonies.The excellent soloists of this recording are Johanna Winkel, soprano, and Michael Nagy, baritone.
