Spirits

Daniel Lozakovich’s rich, romantic style of playing often sees him likened to the iconic violinists of the 20th century. On Spirits, his latest Deutsche Grammophon recording, he celebrates some of his forebears in the hope of passing on their style and repertoire to younger generations.  “I’ve chosen a selection of very accessible miniatures, which I associate with different violinists,” he explains. “All these musicians had such strong, soulful spirits that it’s impossible to forget their sound.” Partnered by pianist Stanislav Soloviev, Lozakovich performs favourite encores by Elgar, Debussy, Falla, Gluck, Brahms and Kreisler. Spirits will be released digitally on 24 March 2023.

The album opens with Elgar’s Salut d’amour, Lozakovich’s tribute to the only one of the violinists honoured here that he knew personally – Ivry Gitlis, who died in 2020. “This piece represents him because it’s about love, and living in the moment, and he was a free spirit who did everything with so much love.” The same composer’s sparkling La Capricieuse is one of just eight pieces recorded by Josef Hassid, who died tragically young. “It was Hassid’s one and only recording that inspired me to record this album,” says Lozakovich. “He had such intelligence, technique, sound and soul.”

Beethoven Violin Concerto

"Immensely gifted emerging artist" (The New York Times) Daniel Lozakovich has been dreaming about recording the Beethoven Violin Concerto since he was eight. He first performed it on stage when he was 13, and at 15 was invited by Valery Gergiev to perform the concerto with him in Moscow. A few short years later, he has reunited with his mentor Gergiev to record the Beethoven with the Munich Philharmonic for Deutsche Grammophon

Tchaikovsky - None but the Lonely Heart

None but the Lonely Heart, set for release by Deutsche Grammophon on 18 October 2019, captures the extraordinary maturity of Daniel Lozakovich's interpretations of Tchaikovsky. The 18-year-old violinist's second album for the Yellow Label features a live performance of the composer's Violin Concerto, recorded with the National Philharmonic Orchestra of Russia under the helm of conductor, and fellow violinist, Vladimir Spivakov, with whom Lozakovich made his solo debut in 2010. The album also includes other works by Tchaikovsky, among them the Méditation for violin and orchestra and arrangements of two vocal works, Lensky's Aria from Eugene Onegin and the sublime Romance, Op.6 No.6, "None but the lonely heart".
