She chose these pieces out of fond memories and gratitude for her teacher, Paul Badura-Skoda, as well as the joy she felt from performing with him. Her dedication is clearly evident in her decision to use a cadenza composed by Badura-Skoda in the Sonata in B-flat major, K. 481.\nShe first recorded the piano part and then played the violin in sync with it. The completed album was featured in the Viennese weekly magazine *Falter* and was also the subject of a special radio program on Vienna Radio, where it received rave reviews. According to the label, this is the first such endeavor since Arthur Grumiaux’s 1959 recording.\n\n*The booklet includes a commentary in Japanese written by the performer herself.\nNaxos Japan\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gramola","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53595649147169,"sku":"4589538782702","price":3090.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4589538782702.jpg?v=1790482118","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/4589538782702","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
