Anne Sophie Mutter Anne Sophie Mutter - Early Years CD/Blu-Ray

Anne-Sophie Mutter's mentor Herbert von Karajan called her "the greatest musical prodigy since the young Menuhin."

This deluxe hardback 3-CD + Blu-ray audio edition celebrates the extraordinary early recordings of Anne-Sophie accompanied by Herbert von Karajan and the Berliner Philharmoniker. This edition also presents Anne-Sophie's  earliest solo concerto recordings, beginning with Mozart from 1978 followed by Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Bruch and Prokofiev.

"The youthful Mutter is both expressive and almost scarily assured and the freshness of her approach is hugely attractive" - Nigel Simeone, International Record Review

"Karajan taught me to find the common thread that runs through a score, to think the music through to its logical conclusion and impose a sense of direction on it... not simply to juxtapose notes in long overarching paragraphs, but to place them in the service of the musical idea. This is something that has lodged in my memory with particular force" - Anne-Sophie Mutter
