When I want to listen to Beethoven's violin sonatas, these are the players I like best. They let the music speak having to exhibit their wonderful virtuosity. Which is true virtuosity!
Great performers, no question, although full of high and late romantic mannerisms. This sometimes interrupts Beethoven's classic logical flow. Eclecticism. Compare to the new recording of Zimmermann and Helmchen (2020).
I read some critics here about Mutter interpretation: my opinion is that she has her own individual sound, and she is quite distinctive from any others. Nowadays, violinists with few exceptions, all sound alike and are boring. So listen, enjoy the great performance, and stop making comparison: because she IS unique!😢
The pianist's wrists are somewhat low, but it doesn't matter because he is so clear and crisp (also expressive). I'm glad it works for him. Of course nothing needs to be said of the violinist that hasn't already been mentioned. A very wonderful duo.
Sonatas for piano and violin I’m off to Vienna to rehearse four programmes of Mozart’s music which violinist Erich Höbarth and I are playing this season in Perth Concert Hall, Scotland’s newest concert hall (our first concert is on November 11). We’re tackling twelve of Mozart’s sonatas for piano and violin. Piano and violin, I hear you say? Isn’t it ‘violin and piano’? Well, not according to Mozart who called them ‘sonatas for piano and violin’. In his letters, he mentions playing the piano parts himself ‘with the accompaniment of a violin’. That was how they were perceived until the nineteenth century and the age of the celebrity violinist, when things flipped around. These works, and many others like them, started to be listed as ‘violin sonatas’, and the piano part was suddenly ‘the accompaniment’. Even today the violinist is often the one with their photo on the record cover, the one whose name is in bigger font in the programme, or the only one whose name is mentioned at the end of the radio broadcast. Why does this matter? It matters because the re-labelling tricks people into perceiving things falsely. They expect the violin part to be the leading voice, when in fact the meat of the musical narrative is in the piano part. If you approach these works expecting the violin part to be pre-eminent, you experience a kind of cognitive dissonance as you listen: often the violin is doing something quite modest, and you sense that the piano part is full of interest and information, but you don’t understand why such prominent material should be relegated to ‘the accompaniment’. The answer is that it isn’t an accompaniment. If you switch to hearing the music as piano with violin, everything falls into place. Of course you still need an excellent violinist, and perhaps even more importantly, an excellent musician, both of which I’m fortunate to have. With more historical awareness, and with the intervention of a few strong-minded pianists, things are beginning to move back to Mozart’s original concept of ‘sonatas for piano with violin’. If you look up all the available recordings on Spotify, you’ll find about half of the duo sonatas advertised with the pianist’s name first, the other half with the violinist’s name first. This shows the confusion around the topic. It’s clearly a situation in transition, but at least there is movement. Liked this post? Subscribe to the RSS feed for more of the same!

Anne Sophie's problem are the rubbati which are easy to listen all along her interpretation. Once someone made me realize about that in her performing of Kreutzer sonata in which it is not so evident. But in this one!!! OMG! Just comparing with Oistrack and Oborin version is very very notorious.
Could you please further explain what you mean by rubati? It's a term that I believe I have associated with something else. And why do they pose a problem for her in your opinion? Thanks!
The technique, the tunning, and the sincronization is excellent, what I criticize is the expresion, and I don't mean the dinamics, what I mean is that it is played as if it was Mozart. Beethoven is explosive not playful.
This is very early Beethoven and still very much of the world of Hayden and Mozart as opposed to the Beethoven who would create bridge to the Romantic era.
This is as many pointed out EARLY Beethoven, which was very influenced by mozart, and that time periods norms, which Beethoven started to first really break at the turn of the century
Very nice playing and connection between the two. I certainly can't do better, but I disagree with their interpretation of the last movement. They slow down at the end of each statement of the main theme and insert (unmarked) rubato at the end of many other phases. It kills the momentum as each section leads to the next. It doesn't make much sense to my ear. A more fluid interpretation is more powerful and exciting. Judging by the dynamic/expressive markings of the piece, Beethoven intended a powerful and exciting conclusion to the sonata. In my opinion, their interpretation sounds cute and playful. (although expertly executed)
interesting insight. even post-edit it manages to impart no information, though if you want quality pillowcases, try Brooklinen. www.brooklinen.com/collections/gs/products/classic-pillowcases?variant=6885069443&gclid=CjwKCAiA25v_BRBNEiwAZb4-ZaXOW-XTr3iEN5cg2ER3jhSjkMAHaTmvspJfwwEJGzUyf6_BPKbM5hoCRS4QAvD_BwE

Stupid comment... And ill informed at best... Have you ever meet one? Or played something yourself for that matter? Just because it doesn't look like Tom & Jerry playing doesn't make the performers emotionless or fake. Everyone does it differently, keep that in mind next time you make a comment like that

...halt ein echter Mutter :D :D
Beautiful notes the combination of violín and piano it's very sweet
Congrats to Beethoven then :)
So expressive and musical! I love Mutter's playing!
there's a quotation from Mozart k. 375a, sonata for two pianos, third movement, in this third movement, if anyone is interested...
Thanks!
I noticed it as well, tho im sure its k 448 in the current Köchel Verzeichnis

This is really pleasing to the ears!
Breathtaking !!
The 2nd mov 10:15
What a great performer she is. She is able to make the violin sing and to express human feelings. Remarkable.
Great Violin & Piano feast...Great Anne....! Pure & clear notes from Violin
I've been a big Sophie-Ann Mutter for years!
how's that possible?? i've been a big fan
Too much rubato

Yeah..imo the pianist tries to steal the limelight from Anne Sophie.It's a Violin sonata.
fantastic interpretation ! and the pianist is awesome as well as ms.Mutter

Gorgeous!!!!!!!!
Música bella y sublime escrita por el gran músico Beethoven pero la violinista tiene que cambiar de cara al ejecutar esta música, desde Abancay Perú.
Just came from a performance of this on historical instruments and Mutter's vibrato is really jarring at first after that.

That's not what Beethoven composed.....

@@박춘화-z5x no, it's in F and it's for a big orchestra with tuba
I guess you spoke to Beethoven and he told you he composed something else and these people are playing someone else's work in his name?
If you put a pillowcase over her head, she’s barely ok...

I have never seen a happy classical musician. They put all their emotions into their playing. It's all fake. Sad, pathetic individuals.
what the hell are you talking about?
