sforzandi sound very angry. Despite many examples of subjectivity, Mustonen’s tempos are quite convincing and are well sustained. The only deviations are within individual phrases and so can be regarded not as tempo changes but as examples of bold rubato.
This is a disc for those who want to explore Beethoven’s intriguing re-thinking of his Violin Concerto and who also appreciate hard-hitting pianism.
