Passion Expressed, Passion Repressed
Violinist Nikolaj Znaider thinks that passion repressed is more interesting than passion expressed. He hears both in the violin concerto by Johannes Brahms. Znaider says we should look to the young Brahms - handsome, confident, defiant - when we hear the concerto. Znaider channels the passion of Brahms in a performance with the Cleveland Orchestra.
