My Discography - Part One

Anne-Sophie Mutter, Herbert Von Karajan & Berliner Philharmoniker
Great Violin Concertos: Mozart, Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Bruch, Brahms



By Music lover (California) 
An excellent set, sure to become a standard. The combination of Herbert von Karajan, the Berlin Philharmonic and Anne-Sophie Mutter shines brilliantly. Ms Mutter performs the works with dignity and feeling, and shows why she is still one of the best in the world when it comes to playing the old masters. The Beethoven concerto is undoubtedly the signature piece of the set, a truly moving performance that ranks amongst the greatest I've heard. Technically, the recordings are consistent with the high quality one came to expect from DG. An absolute must-have collection!
