5 out of 5 stars Wonderful.......2006-02-12

If you want performances on period instruments - and you do - this volume of two with the complete violin sonatas makes an easy choice. Natural, intimate performances - like an animated conversation between two old friends. I didn't know the performers but after hearing this, I do not hesitate to say that their achievements compare favourably with the best: Podger & Cooper, Manze & Egarr, Seiler & Immerseel. Recommended!

5 out of 5 stars Wow!.......2006-02-08

I bought both volumes of these sonatas after hearing only the first track and have not for a moment regretted the decision to do so. In college, I had the opportunity to play and become intimately acquainted with these sonatas. Being partial to 'period' performance, I have always been on the lookout for a good 'historically informed' recording and Breitman and Rivest don't fail to deliver. These are sonatas for fortepiano and violin, not violin sonatas and Breitman and Rivest's approach always keeps that cardinal rule of these pieces in mind. The transparent timbre of the gut-strung violin and fortepiano lend a clarity to these sonatas not often found in a lot of other recordings. The impeccable technique of both artists with the judicious use of vibrato by Rivest adds to that clarity. A wonderful opportunity for those who think they don't like period performances to become aquainted with the practice.

5 out of 5 stars Even better than Vol 1.......2005-10-16

Please see my review of Volume 1. This is perhaps even better!

Album Description

This integral version of Mozart's Sonatas is a rarity on the market. David Breitman is an active performer, teacher and scholar whose specialty is Classical Period performance practice. Equally at home with the modern piano and the fortepiano, his growing discography reflects his versatility. Audiences and critics are unanimous about Jean-François Rivest: he is a spectacular conductor endowed with tremendous energy, precision, emotion and exaltation who knows how to lead his orchestras efficiently towards artistic development. Great depths of feeling as well as a strong sense of structure characterize his interpretations.

This and the second volume by these performers are both simply superb. Unlike some "period" recordings, with these artists you are never aware of any self-conscious attempt to be "authentic". The music is alllowed to speak for itself, with great sensitivity and facility, and with obvious delight. And the music itself is, of course, glorious. The sound of the recordings is quite excellent -- immediate and intimate. I can't imagine these thrilling works being played or recorded any better, and I cannot recommend these two CDs highly enough. Sublime Mozart, beautifully played. Who could ask for anything more? Bravo!!!

5 out of 5 stars From The New York Times.......2007-03-03

"Sergiu Luca and Malcolm Bilson have chosen to record Mozart's sonatas for piano and violin on 18th-century instruments. Luca's violin, a 1733 Venetian instrument, survives in an unaltered state, while Bilson's fortepiano is a modern copy of Mozart's own. The old instruments allow the performers to achieve a remarkably broad dynamic range and a perfect balance between fortepiano and violin. Luca's playing is warm in tone and enlivened by a generous yet controlled application of vibrato; Bilson proves a nimble, fleet-fingered partner. Above all, these are two sensitive performers who never allow their devotion to period practice to interfere with the expression of the music. The result is Mozart of transparent, crystalline beauty."
