Henryk Szeryng & Ingrid Haebler – Mozart: Violin Sonatas (Remastered) (2018) [FLAC 24bit/96kHz]

As a young boy he was trained by his mother to play piano but later decided to exchange the instrument for the violin. In 1928, convinced by Bronisław Huberman (a friend of the family), Szeryng went to Berlin to study under Karl Flesch. His debut concert took place in Warsaw in 1933 when he performed Ludwig van Beethoven’s Violin Concerto in D major with Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of Bruno Walter. In the same year he played in Bucharest, Vienna, and Paris, achieving acclaim both from the audience and the critics. In the years 1933-1939 the artist continued to learn violin under Jacques Thibaud and Gabriel Bouillon and studied composition under Nadia Boulanger.

“There may be some doubts over the rather uningratiating recorded sound and Haebler’s occasionally heavy articulation. But these are swept aside in the face of Szeryng’s exquisitely sweet-toned playing, his elegant phrasing and natural sense of line. The partnership is heard at its very finest in the poignant E minor Sonata (K304), which achieves the necessary balance between Classical poise and Romantic sentiment.” (BBC Music Magazine)
