Mozart - Violin Sonata 21 K304 [Hahn/Zhu]A couple of decades ago i bought a cheap cassette tape with a few Mozart Violin Sonatas on it, and i just fell in love with this Sonata, especially its first movement, it really has an incredible forward momentum to it, and it's good to find a nice one disc survey of a few Mozart Sonatas, and Hahn has chosen a good selection.
Hilary Hahn is American, a superstar Violinist, now 31 years of age, she recorded this disc in 2004, one of the reasons i invested in it, was that it's such a nice package, the front cover is excellent [by Kasskara], i take it shot on the streets on New York, it's actually clever and creative to have slanting buildings in the background, and with a hip level shot, you can feel the scale, and of course there's movement too, as the two girls walk along enjoying the moment.
Here's Gil Shaham playing the first movement on YouTube.
