The Start of Her 50th Debut Anniversary! Mariko Senju Mendelssohn & Tchaikovsky: Violin Concertos

The Violin Concertos by Mendelssohn and Tchaikovsky were also included in her debut album, released 35 years ago. The present recording is a session recording made in June 2024 in Japan with conductor Chikara Iwamura and Japan Philharmonic Orchestra. She has owned her own Stradivarius "Duranti" since 2002, and this is the first recording of these violin concertos played on it.

Regarding the release of this new album, she shared the following comments to her fans in Japan:
"The 50th-anniversary commemorative album will finally be released. In the album, the pieces to be recorded are two violin concertos. These are the same concertos that made my recording debut about 35 years ago, and I have been planning to re-record them for many years. If you have recordings as a CD or a cassette from 35 years ago, please compare them and enjoy the differences!"
