Stravinsky & Prokofiev: Violin Concertos

“Kopatchinskaja brings [virtuosity] to the [Stravinsky] in spades, but she also shatters the image of the work as a neo-classical homage to Bach...Her whole approach to Stravinsky...brings his world close to Prokofiev's...where Kopatchinskaja seems to be feeling her way into the music...A wonderful disc.” --BBC Music Magazine, January 2014 *****

Gramophone Awards 2014 Shortlisted - Concerto

“One feels that with every phrase she has succeeded in making the [Prokofiev] concerto her own...Throughout both concertos, conductor and orchestra appear to support with enthusiasm Kopatchinskaja's vision of the music, with many distinguished solo contributions...Not to be missed.” --Gramophone Magazine, January 2014

“From the start, it is clear that there is a lot more to her than glittering technical accomplishment. That quality is present in spadefuls, but is simply used to back up a truly outstanding imagination...There is a sense of discovery, of spontaneous re-creation of these two masterpieces. Totally stylish yet wholly new; great playing and a truly outstanding issue.” MusicWeb International, 4th December 2013
