Description:

[The Art of Anne-Sophie Mutter] Twenty-seven years after her first recording with Weissenberg in 1982, Mutter has reached the age of maturity in this second recording of her complete works. As Mutter says, this is music most suited to the violin, an instrument that sings and understands its own special qualities, and this disc allows us to enjoy the charms of the singing violin. This is a commemorative recording of Mutter's visit to Japan. Recording: November-December 2009, Poling [Performed by] Anne-Sophie Mutter (violin), Lambert Orkis (piano)
