Product Description
From Amazon.co.uk
Hands down, this is the recording to own of two of Beethoven's chamber music masterpieces, the Kreutzer and Spring Sonatas. It captures one of classical music's greatest duos--Vladimir Ashkenazy and Itzhak Perlman--at the height of their powers, and the results are glorious, made only better by a great digital re-mastering. The 1973 recording of the Kreutzer is filled with impassioned playing (particularly in the case of Perlman) and spot-on tonality. The first movement is unbelievably riveting in the duo's capable hands. Spring is slightly more restrained, but just as beautiful. Simply gorgeous. --Jason Verlinde

It really is that great,
By peederj (San Francisco, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 1973 Kreutzer/Spring Vln Son (Audio CD)
The other reviewers here (at time of writing, they were all 5-stars) aren't exaggerating. I sing each movement of these sonatas impulsively and I cannot find opportunity for improvement in either the music or the performance.This would be a good disc to give as a gift. I cannot imagine a negative response. This is the sublime, and it transcends petty stylistic considerations. There is no room for argument here.

The best ever,

This review is from: 1973 Kreutzer/Spring Vln Son (Audio CD)
I've tried so many other recordings ( with all the BIG names attached to it). Nobody gets into these two sonatas better than this (I mean this 1973 Recording). Never before and ever after. The more you listen it, the more you love it! It's just a towering performance!!
