Russian violinist Vadim Repin already has an impressive\nrecording catalogue, mainly with the Erato label, so it was\nsurprising that he had never tackled these works before.\nFortunately, it was worth the wait. Everything about Repin’s\nplaying is magical. His intonation, the sweet tone and his\nbrilliant technique are perfect for Beethoven’s music. An intensely\nexpressive performance that will get better with every listen.\nThere is also a dazzling and thrilling performance of the\n‘Kreutzer’ violin sonata with the great Martha Argerich on\npiano.
