Viktoria Mullova’s first album of Beethoven Violin Sonatas, Nos 3&9’Kreutzer’ with Kristian Bezuidenhout was reviewed enthusiastically by Gramophone magazine ‘The sound, in these familiar pieces has a startling clarity’ and went on to say that the period instruments ‘relocate these two works in a darkly Romantic sound world’For the next volume in a complete cycle, Viktoria is partnered by Alasdair Beatson in the strange and gnomic 4th sonata, the popular 5th’ Spring’ sonata and the dramatic7th – Beethoven in C Minor mood – always exciting and turbulent!
