Joachim times two

The legendary 19th-century violin virtuoso Joseph Joachim makes his presence felt on today's show. His "Hungarian" Violin Concerto is performed by Christian Tetzlaff with conductor Rossen Milanov and the Philadelphia Orchestra in Philadelphia. And his cadenzas are used by Veronika Eberle as she plays Mozart's Fourth Violin Concerto with Lawrence Foster and the North German Radio Symphony in Hamburg.
