Viktoria Mullova - Beethoven: Violin Sonatas 4, 5 & 7 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

This re- of Beethoven Violin Sonatas 4, 5 & 7 continues Viktoria Mullova and Alasdair Beatson's acclaimed exploration of Beethoven's violin sonatas on period instruments. Recorded in 2020, the album pairs Mullova's 1750 Guadagnini violin, strung with gut, with Beatson's fortepiano by Paul McNulty, offering performances grounded in historical practice. The programme brings together the dramatic Sonata in A minor, Op. 23, the lyrical InchSpringInch Sonata, Op. 24, and the sharply characterised Sonata in C minor, Op. 30 No. 2. Heard together, these works reveal Beethoven's expanding dialogue between violin and piano at a pivotal stage in his early maturity. Album Tracks 1. Violin Sonata No. 4 in a Minor, Op.23 2. Violin Sonata No. 5 in F Major, Op.24 InchSpringInch 3. Violin Sonata No. 7 in C minor, Op.30 No. 2
