Product Description

Chronique amazon.fr

La jeune violoniste allemande n'a que treize ans lorsque Karajan remarque son incroyable talent. Onze ans plus tard, devenue l'une des artistes les plus sollicitées, elle enregistre sous sa direction ces deux grands Concertos pour violon du répertoire. Entre la juvénilité et la tendresse d'un archet déjà reconnaissable et la beauté des timbres du Philharmonique de Berlin, une véritable osmose se crée. On en oublie la différence d'âge et de conception de l'oeuvre entre les deux artistes, pour ne garder que ce contraste saisissant et l'écoute mutuelle entre Anne-Sophie Mutter et Herbert von Karajan. Le Concerto de Bruch brille de la même énergie, la richesse du vibrato de la violoniste étant encore plus fascinante de naturel. --Étienne Bertoli

5.0 out of 5 stars Astounding Interpretation, Oct 15 2005
By Meggie (Alberta, Canada) - See all my reviews
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Expansive Bruch, Mar 20 2003
By Scott68 (Columbus, Ohio United States) - See all my reviews
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!

3.0 out of 5 stars Hmmm..., Jun 26 2002
By A Customer
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great interpretation of great German romantic violin concert
A fantastic record - a unique combination of von Karajan and his "protegee" Anne-Sophie Mutter, who gave an excellent, mature performance of these concertos at the age... Read more
