AA.VV. On How A Picture Can Sound

I take into account both the record label advice and the literary one. I’m already on the site and I’m really liking it a lot. Enlightening as always.

Ludwig Van Beethoven Sonata per Violino e Piano No.9 "Kreutzer"

Two record tips: the version by Zino Francescatti and Robert Casadesus for Sony (an absolute reference, a must-have gem), and the DGG box set featuring the complete sonatas for violin and piano by the angelic violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter and Lambert Orkis (here, in addition to the excellent performance, there's the added value of being able to admire one of the most fascinating and talented women in the classical music world... a delight for the eyes and ears). I vote for you.

Ludwig Van Beethoven Sonata per Violino e Piano No.9 "Kreutzer"

A literary monument, a musical monument, and a monument of review. It tears apart souls, the Kreutzer Sonata, with its melancholy and piercing opening, the violin sharp as a dagger, the piano heavy and grave as destiny; then the witches' sabbath of the first Presto, the elegance of the Andante with variations, the agility of the Finale still in Presto. No, Ludovico had no limits. A great blow indeed.

Wow, this is really experimental...after listening to the notes, I trace the common denominator of each of them in a permanent noise-sound flow, disrupted by electric, electronic, melodic, guitar-like insertions, and god knows what else...I don't know why, but the final result is almost "seductive."

Another incredibly engaging JoP, congratulations. Speaking of theological quotes and the like: after a classic objection to the existence of God, usually motivated by the various human tragedies past, present, and future, someone (I don't remember who, but the memory is recent) countered by saying that "God exists, it's us who don't understand His sense of humor."

I too imagined it to be more "genius," considering the value of both (I borrow Massimof's comment, which I find very apt), but it is undoubtedly a delightful and refined work. It just lacks the soaring moments that were reasonably expected. A clear, balanced, and competent review.
