Anne-Sophie Mutter – e-moll op. 64
Biography
Mutter started playing the piano at age five. Shortly after, she began playing the violin, studying with Erna Honigberger and Aida Stucki.
After winning several prizes, she was exempted from school to dedicate herself to her art. When she was 13, conductor Herbert von Karajan invited her to play with the Berlin Philharmonic. In 1977, she made her debut at the Salzburg Festival and with the English Chamber Orchestra under Daniel Barenboim.
At 15, Mutter made her first recording of the Mozart Third and Fifth Violin Concertos with von Karajan and the Berlin Philharmonic. The same year, she was named Artist of the Year.
In 1980, she made her American debut with the New York Philharmonic under Zubin Mehta. In 1985, at the age of 22, she was made an honorary fellow of the Royal Academy of Music (London) and head of its faculty of international violin studies. In 1988, she made a grand tour of Canada and the United States, playing for the first time at Carnegie Hall. In 1998 she played and recorded for CD and DVD the complete set of Beethoven’s Violin Sonatas, accompanied by Lambert Orkis; these were broadcast on television in many countries.
Though her repertoire includes many classical works, Mutter is particularly known for her performances of modern music. A number of pieces have been especially written for or dedicated to her, including Henri Dutilleux’s Sur le Même Accord, Witold Lutosławski’s Partita, Krzysztof Penderecki’s Second Violin Concerto and Wolfgang Rihm’s Gesungene Zeit (“Time Chant”).

She's a goddess, indeed. Her interpretation of Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto almost brings me to tears.

Her interpretation of meditation is the best i've heard

Warum so wenige? Was für eine dumme Frage. Wahrscheinlich, weil in erster Linie der Komponist gescrobbelt wird, der ERSCHAFFER eines Werkes, und nicht der INTERPRET.

So weniger scrobbles? Ich weiss warum. Anne-Sophie Mutter is often NOT listed as a solo artist, but rather as an artist appearing with someone else (an orchestra, for instance). Some examples: Anne-Sophie Mutter/New York Philharmonic/Masur; Anne-Sophie Mutter/Academy of St Martin-in-the-Fields/Sir Neville Marriner; Anne-Sophie Mutter/Bruno Giuranna/Academy of St Martin-in-the-Fields/Sir Neville Marriner; Anne-Sophie Mutter; Trondheim Soloists; Anne-Sophie Mutter/Wiener Philharmoniker/Herbert von Karajan
