Beethoven (1770-1827)

Description:

World premiere CD of the beautiful violinist Silvia Markovic's Beethoven: Violin Sonatas! The beautiful Romanian violinist, Silvia Markovic, has recorded a fantastic album of Beethoven:Violin Sonatas for the first time in the world. This is the first Beethoven Sonata collection on CD! The accompaniment is by Valentin Georgiou, a virtuoso violinist still active at over 90 years of age. The combination was made possible by the fact that Markovic is the younger brother of the violin master. Markovic's tone has a wildness to it that is the opposite of the kind of performance that is merely well-mannered. It could be said that this was Beethoven's anthem of nature. The highlight is the "Kreutzer Sonata," which conveys to the listener the full charm of this long and serious masterpiece. Unfortunately, the complete Beethoven cycle was never completed, due to her emigration from the country. The liner notes with an up-to-date interview with Markovic are a must-read. The recording takes place in the Marble Hall of the Free Press, which still exists in the center of Bucharest. The beauty of the interior is so mysterious that it is hard to believe it is real. Just imagine the Marble Room of St. Florian's in Austria. Tobu Land System
