“Naxos strikes again, with a fascinating collection of violin works by Miklos Rozsa (1907-1995), whose day job for 46 years was producing scores to such films as Spellbound and Ben-Hur. The early post-conservatory items from Europe are written in a folkish style reminiscent of, though less gritty than, Kodaly and Bartok…. A must-have for fiddle fans.” Montreal Gazette

Proms 2008

Rózsa, one of Hollywood's finest film composers, was Hungarian to the marrow - witness this scintillating early crop of pieces for violin (his own instrument) and piano, plus the fine late solo Sonata.
