Happy Birthday, George Enescu

Happy Birthday, George Enescu August 19, 2015

Romanian composer and violinist George Enescu was born on this day in 1881. To mark the occasion, I’ve shared his Symphony No.3 above. But he is best known for his Romanian Rhapsodies, and so if you are new to his music, or to 20th century orchestral music, that might be a more accessible introduction. Why not just go to YouTube, type in Enescu, and explore?
