Dudamel Mania continues, this week by way of a concert given at the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia in Rome this past November. Leading his Orquesta Sinfonica Simon Bolivar, Dudemel whips up a feast that, if the audience is any indication, was a complete barn-burner.

Recorded by RAI in Rome (with the engineers going a little overboard on levels), November 23rd this past year, the concert runs the gamut from Beethoven and Verdi to Stravinsky, Ravel, Ginastera and Leonard Bernstein.

Here's a rundown of what you'll be hearing:

Alberto Ginastera

Leonard Bernstein

Registrato il 23 novembre 2011 al Parco della Musica di Roma

The Beethoven is on the top player and the rest of this 2 hour concert is on the bottom player.

*You know the audience is on your side when, during the Mambo from Bernstein's West Side Story, the entire crowd screams "Mambo" on cue. That's audience participation.

Not the most mellow of Anti-road Rage Wednesday concerts, but a pretty memorable one.

Enjoy.

Because it's Italian Radio the announcer is in Italian - you can check out your language skills or you can ignore it. But play it loud anyway.

Over to Hamburg by way of Rome this week. A concert given by The North German Radio Symphony conducted by Matthias Foremny as broadcast by RAI Radio 3 in Italy. It features the wonderful Korean violin sensation Hyeyoon Park playing the Violin Concerto by Erich Wolfgang Korngold plus an encore of the Ysaye Sonata for Solo Violin Number 2.

The concert was recorded in Hamburg on October 21, 2010.

It's short at a little over 45 minutes so it's all on one player.

Here are the notes:

Concerto Euroradio
ORCHESTRA SINFONICA DEL NDR
violino Hyeyoon Park
direttore Matthias Foremny

Hector Berlioz
Le Carnaval Romain', Ouverture op.9

Erich Wolfgang Korngold
Concerto per violino e orchestra in re maggiore op.35
- Moderato nobile
- Romance: Andante
- Finale: Allegro assai vivace

Eugène Ysaÿe
Sonata per violino solo in la minore op. 27 n. 2

Registrato il 21 ottobre 2010 nella Laeiszhalle di Amburgo>

I think you'll agree this constitutes pretty serious Anti-Road Rage Wednesday music.
