Customer Reviews:

Excellent buy!.......2007-04-09

This is an excellent buy. I especially like the Stravinsky and Berg. But all compositions are good and she really plays the heck out of fthem.

DIABETES IS HELPED BY TWENTIETH CENTURY VIOLIN MUSIC.......2002-09-04

I listened to Igor Stravinsky's concerto en re and Witold Lutoslawski's Partita and Chain 2 before lunch. Stravinsky was fine and easy. Lutoslawski I kind of glossed over. After lunch I got through Bartok,enjoyed Norbert Moret's En reve, submerged with Berg, and got reamed by Rihm.
Lutoslawski always lowers my blood sugar. I think it is because his music is unfamiliar, dissonant, and requires a lot of attention as do the rest. The violin concerto by Bartok and Berg were intriguing and held me spellbound.
Wolfgang Rihm I thought extreme in his high registers for the violin. My sugar three hours after eating was 122. This is good for me.
So, I ordered Norbert Moret's Cello Concerto by a favorite named Rostropovich along with Hymne de Silence. I was going to order Wolfgang Rihm's Sring Quartets 1,8 & 5, but the review made it sound like a lot of noise. But this is good for me, so I ordered. I got a little Stravinsky in Flute for Relaxation. Maybe the unfamiliar is better when the familiar has too many memories and auditorial reactions. I may revisit more Twentieth Century musicians.

Nicely Done.......2000-04-01

An all around great collection of important 20th century stuff. She really has a unique take on the Bartok...

Great collections of modern music by fine musician........1999-12-16

This is certainly one of the great collections of modern music, and it's much to Mutter's credit that she plays this music. She's not just a babe, though that's frequently how she's packaged on CD covers (why do they do that?). She can really play, with tremendous fire, for instance, on the great Bartok 2d, or subtlety and nuance on the Berg. The two Lutoslawski's call for rapid changes in style, perhaps Mutter's greatest strength. The lesser known works on this set are really worth it, too--the Moret is dazzling, the Rihm mysterious and beautiful. In all this is an excellent buy.
