Nominee in the Chamber Music category

2023 ICMA Nominee

“There should be a warning label on violinist Patricia Kopatchinskaja CDs: “Fireworks – handle with care.” You always get something different and incredibly exciting from this player who never hesitates to take risks … it’s the Violin Sonata No.7 in C Minor Op.30 No.2 by Antheil’s lifelong hero Beethoven, however, that sees Kopatchinskaja really upping the excitement levels in a quite remarkable performance.”

***** Coup de Cœur

Romaric Gergorin – Classica magazine (France) – July/August 2022

“… A fascinating and enjoyable disc.” ****½

Clive Paget – Limelight magazine.com.au – 27 June 2022

“… Kopatchinskaja’s playing throughout has that same luminous, impish quality that makes virtually all her recordings approximate starbursts viewed from nearby; extreme dynamics and a kaleidoscopic array of colours keep you hooked. What’s old invariably sounds fresh-minted, whereas what’s new comes across as familiar…”

Rob Cowan – Gramophone magazine – July 2022

Performance **** Recording *****

Paul Riley – BBC Music magazine – July 2022

“…The playing is of the very highest level. Patricia Kopachinskaja and pianist Joonas Ahonen take great pleasure in exploring this repertoire to their heart’s content, with Antheil’s Sonata being the highlight, of course…” *****
