Periodically, Daniel Hope sends a fatherly smile to his left. World violinist Hope is rightly proud of his young colleague. Tassilo Probst is a accomplished musician who easily stages Jenő Hubay’s “Carmen Fantasy” as a bravura number and sublimates Franz Schubert’s C major Fantasy with concentrated seriousness. Probst presents the work, which is difficult in every respect, as a vital meditation and thoughtful virtuoso piece, shaping the dreamy beginning as a seemingly endless melody arc, in a pianissimo that is as fine as it is substantial.
