This collection offers a glimpse of Yehudi Menuhin’s artistry in the Beethoven repertoire, through the most iconic of his numerous recordings. It includes two versions of the concerto (with Klemperer and Furtwängler), a florilegium of sonatas and other chamber pieces with Louis Kentner and Hephzibah, lieder sung by Janet Baker and Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau… and even recordings in which Menuhin drops the violins for the baton, conducting François-René Duchâble in piano concertos!
