This interactive programme provides a beautifully illustrated insight into Perlman the musician and his personal reading of Tchaikovsky's ever-popular violin concerto, with helpful comments from Perlman himself and an extensive glossary of musical terms. All texts/narration in English.

This CD-ROM includes:

•The complete sound recording is playable as a CD on a standard CD player. (As the CD-ROM element takes up the space of track 1, the sound starts at track 2.)

•Complete on-screen score which scrolls in time with the music.

•Instant access to and analysis of all sections of the concerto.

•An extensive glossary of musical terms.

•Photos from the concert performance/tour in Russia.
