You know I'm gonna take this violin concertos album in a different direction 
. It got me thinking, Richard Tognetti's approach to music is kinda like a reflection of our country's diversity, all modern and innovative on one hand, and traditional on the other 
. Like, you've got these two concerto works from Beethoven and Brahms, both considered classics, but they're performed in different ways, just like how Australia's got its own unique vibe going on. And I think that's what makes this album so special, it's not just about the music itself, but also about the story behind it

! Richard Tognetti is pure genius when it comes to conducting these pieces, especially the Beethoven concerto - that 27-minute first movement is absolute magic 
! I know some people might find his approach a bit unconventional, but I think it's what makes this album so special. The way he blends modern techniques with historical instruments creates this incredible sound that draws you in and refuses to let go 
. And the woodwind solos in the Brahms concerto? Absolutely stunning! 
The ACO really knows how to bring out the best in these concertos, making this album an absolute must-listen for any music fan 
but on the flip side the brahms concerto sounds pretty standard compared to other versions out there still a must-listen tho cuz its gotta represent the acos 50 yrs of awesomeness 
it's like they're taking all their experience and expertise to create something truly special. for me, it's a reminder that with age comes wisdom & sometimes you gotta know when to push boundaries (like Tognetti did) vs go for more traditional routes
