In this first volume of Mozart's duos, Isabelle Faust and Alexander Melnikov revive on period instruments the tradition of the 'sonata for keyboard with violin accompaniment'.

Born in the middle of the Age of Enlightenment, this rather unusual concept continued to thrive in the era of Viennese Classicism, even if, long before Beethoven, Mozart swiftly sealed its fate by instigating (or, in a sense, restoring) an increasingly lively conversation between the two instruments. What a beautiful couple they were to make! Here is the first chapter in their story...

Isabelle Faust, violin
Alexander Melnikov, piano

Slow movements are so good but fast ones are sometimes felt monotonous in spite of their creating various features.
I think Isabelle's forte is thin as if ceiling were low :(
Thanks

I generally find more to respect about Faust's playing than to genuinely enjoy. Hoping this is an exception.
