Over the past quarter of a century the Australian Chamber Orchestra has become a regular visitor to Europe, establishing itself as one of the world's foremost chamber bands. The group was founded in 1975, and this pairing of perhaps the two greatest violin concertos in the repertory is being released to mark the ACO's 50th birthday. The soloist and conductor in both works is Richard Tognetti, who has been the orchestra's leader and artistic director for the past 35 years.
