Amercian Record Guide Reviews "Mozart: Violin Sonatas"

MOZART: Violin Sonatas, K 301, 304,376, 454
Aaron Berofsky; Thomas Sauer, p
Blue Griffin 143—70 minutes

Berofsky and Sauer play with exquisite taste and pay close attention to bringing out the form and personality of each sonata. There is a lot to be learned from these readings. Everything this duo does is musically motivated, and every exchange of phrase is like an exchange of dialog. There are no theatrics, no overt stylistic attempts to approximate authenticity, and the main musical personality on this recording is Mozart’s. Amercian Record Guide March/April 2008
