Though concertos for multiple soloists were rare in the Romantic era, German violinist and composer Louis Spohr placed musical integrity ahead of showmanship and stylistic convention with his Concertos for Two Violins, Nos. 1 and 2, which abound with his signature melodic mastery and delicately poised Classical sensibility. Virtuosic solo passages alternate with congenial dialogue between violinists Henning Kraggerud and Oyvind Bjora, both of whom lend expert interpretations to these enigmatic compositions.
