Overview

BBC Music Magazine waxed lyrical about the recent duo disc from the Russian-born British violinist and the Scottish pianist including these two sonatas: ‘The C minor of Op. 30 No. 2 inspires the most impassioned playing, Mullova using an exquisitely subtle range of vibrato, from a gloriously pure senza to gentle inflections that both soothe and insinuate. Beatson articulates Beethoven’s occasionally menacing bass lines with relish and a palpable sense of opening the fortepiano’s expressive horizons.’
