rrRECORD OF THE WEEK, BBC RADIO 3 RECORD REVIEW
rr'the end of a series of Beethoven violin sonatas I've enjoyed enormously over the last year for their sense of discovery, spontaneity, and the sheer delight in Beethoven's invention. [x85] It's been worth the wait. From the silvery beauty of the opening, so fresh and song-like, to the hushed intimacy of the slow movement making time stand still.' x96 BBC Radio 3, Record Review (Andrew McGregor)
rr'[the series] has been consistently rewarding I think, full of life and curiosity, playful and thoughtful [x85]. They seem to echo and finish each other's musical sentences with such intimacy and understanding.' x96 BBC Radio 3, Record Review (Andrew McGregor)
rr'Whether in the first sonata or in the last (and here especially in the first movement), the nuances that Weithaas elicits from her instrument are finely attuned to the expressiveness of the music, and Varjon's playing, his art of listening to his partner, taking the lead and returning it, is quite extraordinary, as everything happens with the greatest naturalness and spontaneity.' x96 Pizzicato, 5 STARS
