Beethoven ~ Violin Sonata in G major, Op.96


One of the world’s greatest virtuoso violinists, Russian-born Viktoria Mullova is renowned for her exceptional versatility and musical integrity in repertoire ranging from the Baroque to jazz, both in recital and in collaboration with many of the world’s great orchestras, and we are thrilled that she is appearing alongside Scottish pianist Alasdair Beatson, not only an outstanding soloist and chamber musician but also a regular favourite with Paxton audiences. Together they are currently recording the complete Beethoven Violin Sonatas, two of which they play here with Schubert’s dramatic ‘Rondo brillant’.

[Mullova’s] spectrum of tones, from the merest whisper to full-throated songfulness in lyrical passages, compel the attention throughout.Beethoven Sonatas, Gramophone
