Description:

Faust & Melnikov's second collection of Mozart sonatas! The brilliant sound of Faust's violin! Melnikov's free and eloquent fortepiano Isabelle Faust, one of the world's greatest violinists, and the ever-increasing depth and freedom of Melnikov's music, present their second collection of Mozart violin sonatas. The first volume (KKC 6002/HMM 902360) was highly acclaimed worldwide as a performance in which Faust and Melnikov's breath and tone were in perfect synch. In this second recording, Faust's passages are all dazzlingly brilliant, and the sound is dazzling. Melnikov's fortepiano was also free, spontaneous, and eloquent. From the first movement of the famous F major sonata, the first piece on the program, we were drawn in by the lively exchange of words between the two musicians. Every detail of the melody is filled with music.The slow movement is exquisite, and the Allegro movement is the most exhilarating of all, making this an exquisite ensemble! King International
