Astounding Interpretation,
By Meggie (Alberta, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Vln Ctos (Audio CD)
This is by far my favourite version of both the Bruch and Mendelssohn. There is so much feeling in both pieces. I can understand why fans of more classical interpretations of both works might question some of Mutter's stylistic departures, but I could honestly care less. Once you hear it, you won't go back! My violin teacher introduced me to this version when I was about 12, so I suppose I am a bit biased. HOWEVER, this recording caused me to fall in love with Mendelssohn and I highly recommend it to any young violinist.Two of the most beautiful pieces ever written, together in one cd and featuring one of the best performers of our time: buy it--you won't be sorry.

Expansive Bruch,
By Scott68 (Columbus, Ohio United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Vln Ctos (Audio CD)
This is a review for Ms Mutter's recording of the Bruch. If you have never heard the beauty of this concerto you don't know what you're missing! My favorite recordings of the wonderful Bruch Concerto One are by Kyung Wha Chung and Pinchas Zukerman who both played with incredible beauty. What I found liberating about this recording is Ms Mutter's willingness to stretch out with her feelings. I think that she recieves alot of criticism for her personalized interpretations that stray from the composer's intent but come on, who wants to her it played the same way over and over? I believe this is her intention: to deliver a highly personalized performance full of an individualized style. That is certainly the case here, Ms Mutter delivers a wonderful Bruch that is expanded with her ideas especilly with respect to rythm and tempo. An individualized approach to a great work keeps the piece fresh as though it were a different piece of music, I still enjoy listening to this recording after many years of listening. Other than that, we get to look at another photo of her gorgeous face and that is another bonus for me. Thanks Annie!

Hmmm...,
By A Customer
This review is from: Vln Ctos (Audio CD)
The Mendelssohn concerto is truly one of the greates concertoes of all time,and Bruch's pretty good too, but I don't think that Anne Sophie Mutter gets the right feel. It drawls along at a slow pace, and the seperate bowings ruin the fluid feeling of the piece. I guarantee that you will like the pieces, but I reccomend the version with the Budapest Symphony orchestra and Emmy Vehrey if you want good performance.
