The Canadian violinist Angèle Dubeau has a history of exploring the byways of the repertoire. This recital takes Locatelli as the starting-point for a personal exploration of the virtuoso tradition, and has unearthed some gems. The Glick, on the surface quite conventional, develops a most original haunting quality, the Piazzolla Tango-Etudes are entertaining, elegant and delicately sensuous, and Ridout’s Ferdinand the Bull, given with alternative French and English narrations, cleverly uses the tricks of the 19th-century virtuoso violinist’s armoury to strong and humorous illustrative effect. It’s not, perhaps, a programme one would wish often to revisit, but Dubeau performs it all with terrific verve and style. The DVD doesn’t show her playing; we just see bigger and better reproductions of the booklet’s artwork.
