Experience the mastery of Anne-Sophie Mutter in this captivating live recording, featuring two iconic works of Baroque music. The album showcases Mutter's virtuosity and expressive depth, accompanied by the Trondheim Soloists. The centerpiece is Antonio Vivaldi's beloved "Le quattro stagioni" (The Four Seasons), a set of four violin concertos that vividly depict the changing seasons through evocative melodies and dynamic rhythms. Each concerto is a vivid portrayal of nature's beauty and drama, from the blooming spring to the fierce winter.
Complementing Vivaldi's masterpiece is Giuseppe Tartini's "Sonata in G minor, B. g5," known as "Il trillo del diavolo" (The Devil's Trill). This technically demanding work is a testament to Mutter's exceptional skill and artistry, with its rapid trills and intricate passages. Recorded live, the album captures the energy and spontaneity of a live performance, offering an intimate glimpse into Mutter's musical prowess. The album was released in 1999 under the Deutsche Grammophon label and spans a duration of one hour and two minutes, providing a rich and immersive listening experience.
