Tout à fait d'accord avec le commentaire précédent !
Et-pour ne pas faire double-emploi avec ce que l'on peut dire d'Anne-Sophie Mutter- j'ajoute une note TECHNIQUE: j'ai un Lecteur SONY SACD......
Eh bien ce disque sonne comme si les deux artistes étaient venus à la maison interpréter ces Sonates, à titre personnel....,sous mes yeux et mes oreilles !
C'est délicieux : alors que dire d'un disque qui allie la PERFECTION MUSICALE à la PERFECTION TECHNIQUE ?
Que c'est dommage que la source soit presque tarie....
Beethoven is Beethoven and needs no puff from me--nor does Ms Mutter. What prompted me toward a more structured and specific listening of the Kreutzer Sonata was the same name Tolstoy story--I wanted to hear the Beethoven through the lens of Tolstoy's drama (ignore the mixed metaphor). An interesting way to experience both works, and I'm still working on the results. Give it a try.
For someone looking for an audiophile version of this recording, this SACD release is a misrepresentation. As the liner notes state, the source is a 44.1 KHz 24 bit digital recording made in 1998. So, the sampling rate here cannot capture the timbre of the violin nor the spatial staging. You do get 5+1 channels, which is nice. DGG has put out a lot of SACDs whose sources are at most 96KHz and not DSD, which is a shame since that's all that was in the original. It would be more truthful if some kind of labeling warned the buyer that this is not a DSD recording and won't have the fidelity of DSD.
