Concert Reviews
... The Salzburg duo :nota bene: played two sonatas each by Mozart and Schubert, in the assembly rooms of the "Kurhaus Wiesbaden".
The performance of this ensemble is characterised by homogeneity of sound and expression. The violinist Eva Steinschaden played with a warm, fine tone, in complete harmony with the precise and practised accompaniment of the pianist Alexander Vavtar.
Schubert's Sonata in A minor D 385 alternated between a firm, resolute and a gentle, highly sensitive rendering. The romantic elements of the second movement were brought out in beautifully flowing lines, while the final movement raced along, lively and dynamic. Similar comments apply to the vital and well-balanced interpretation of Schubert's Sonata in A major D 574.
All in all, a good start to this year's concert series of the Wiesbaden Mozart Society.
