This is the world premiere recording of Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto in its original version. There are a few different notes and phrasing bowings than in what is usually played. The most obvious audible difference is that the complete second movement is played with mute, while it has become a tradition that the violinist take the mute off for the second theme and therefore for most of that movement. This was never intended by Tchaikovsky. The work is the coming back to life and light, a work of positiveness. His music was strongly connected to his personal life. Linus Roth has played the piece for twenty years and feels confident to record his unique interpretation. Shostakovich’s Second Violin Concerto is a late work by the composer who at that time was already ill and knew that his life would soon be over. The conductor of the recording, Thomas Sanderling, was a close friend of his and remembers him well in his late years. Clearly this is not a funny piece, but tha

Violinist Linus Roth began studying music early in childhood, and became a student of Nicolas Chumachenco at the Music Academy of Freiburg at the age of 12. He pursued music studies in Lübeck, where he studied with Zakhar Bron, and later worked with Ana Chumachenco in Zürich and Munich. Roth was strongly influenced by Salvatore Accardo, Miriam Fried, and Josef Rissin, and a scholarship from Anne-Sophie Mutter’s foundation enabled him to complete his education. Roth has performed as a concerto soloist with the Stuttgart State Opera Orchestra, the Munich Chamber Orchestra, the Orchestra della Toscana, the Orchestre Philharmonique de Nice, the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic, and the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin. He has also performed with the Bruckner Orchester Linz, the Orquesta de Cordoba, the Bern Symphony Orchestra, the Cologne Chamber Orchestra, and the Württemberg Chamber Orchestra Heilbronn, among several others. He has played chamber music with many artists, including Nicolas Altstaedt, Julius Berger, Gautier Capuçon, Kim Kashkashian, Albrecht Mayer, Nils Mönkemeyer, Jan Vogler, and frequent accompanist José Gallardo. Roth is the professor of violin at the Leopold-Mozart-Zentrum of the University of Augsburg. He has recorded for Challenge Classics, CPO, and EMI Classics.

Already the Brazilian composer Heitor Villa Lobos (1887-1959) creatively expressed his immense admiration for Johann Sebastian Bach with the total of nine Bachianas Brasilieras, which are still among his most famous works today. The name of the Brazilian orchestra Johann Sebastian Rio also bears witness to the musicians’ admiration for the great baroque composer. The German violin virtuoso Linus Roth got to know the orchestra led by Filipe Prazeres in Brazil and immediately became enthusiastic about the still young ensemble and its concept. The result of this enthusiasm is the joint recording project SamBach presented here on the Dutch label EVIL PENGUIN. Beginning with Johann Sebastian Bach’s magnificent Violin Concerto in E Major BWV 1042, an evergreen classic of the Baroque concert repertoire, the varied program leads via Villa-Lobos’ well-known Aria Cantilena from the Bachiana Brasiliera No. 5 to some of the most famous Brazilian samba melodies, which, like the piece by Villa-Lobos, have each been extremely cleverly arranged here for the instrumentation of solo violin, string orchestra, harpsichord, guitar and percussion.

Groslot borrows musical motives and paraphrases them in his musical language.

2020… Sitting at home with no performances ahead brought Linus Roth back to his notebooks, in which he had been jotting down random musical ideas over the course of many years. One of them that suddenly struck him, was an idea for a recording programme made up of some of his most beloved pieces for violin and piano, all of which had in common both a virtuoso character and that they were all dances. What better way to lift the spirits than with dance music? Linus called his long term musical partner, pianist José Gallardo and five weeks later, they had the remarkable opportunity to record the album in the visually stunning and acoustically unique Library of the former monastery in Ochsenhausen, Germany, home of the Music Academy of Baden-Württemberg.

The cycle of six solo Sonatas and Partitas by J.S. Bach is arguably one of the most powerful and most important compositions in musical history. These works have been with Linus Roth since he was nine years old, when he first learned the Gigue from the E major Partita, moving on by the age of twelve to the first Fugue in G minor to tackling at fifteen the Ciaconna, which represents a cosmos in its own right. By seventeen, Roth had finally learned the entire oeuvre for the first time and since then he is fortunate to have been able to grow as a musician through the constant and welcome challenge of interpreting these remarkable works.
