Re-packaged, long unavailable

Looks like Philips is re-packaging all Mullova's past recordings into two-disc sets. This one has the Bach partitas, which are extraordinary (the original Mullova recording of this is very rare and commands high prices). I assume this is the same recording, paired with another previous recording of the Bach violin concerti.

Spark of individuality

Lots of individuality here - comes through delightfully sometimes, but other times literally clips Bach's wings - Bach is a winged bird, and Mullova manages to ground him with rare skill. Maybe its just that its too different from the versions I've heard before, and I'll need to give it more time. Indeed, the violin sounds beautiful, and the chaconne is remarkable.
This is some of the music I love most - my favorite versions of the sonatas and partitas are Milstein's two, and of the concertos, probably Takako Nishizaki's. This version leaves me with mixed feelings, but I am very glad to own it - I'd say every lover of Bach or the violin should own one.

edgy, and NOT in a good way.

I find Mullova's sound really harsh and difficult to listen to, like she is constantly frustrated with her own lack of imagination and therefore has to do weird things that have nothing to do with Bach. This "interpretation" of Bach is very clean, but when does that matter other than in competitions? That is about all Mullova can be known for: good intonation. It is soulless and I do not enjoy her playing at all. Sorry, Victoria, but this is my honest opinion. Perhaps she can play Stravinsky Concerto, but not this.
