Mutter leaves her mark
Accidental Tourist | Paris, France | 04/21/2010
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Anne-Sophie Mutter recently said in an interview that she would retire once she could add nothing new to the repertoire. Judged from this recording, she is far from retiring any time soon.



The Sueddeutsche Zeitung hit it right on the nail: "fiery passion as well as flawless control". The emotional charge that Mutter managed in these sonatas are at least on a par with the recently-resurfaced recording of Ferras-Barbizet Ferras, Christian: Brahms, Schumann, Franck, yet she manages to smooth out the "rough edges" and put a more feminine feel on the violin tone. Bravo for making the violin sing like a soprano. The way she played with the high notes in the G-major sonata, left them in a reverie, and then just parked them up there without letting them fall has only been achieved by very few violinists.
