HAYDN: SIX SONATAS FOR VIOLIN AND VIOLA
Kazuo Okumura,Hans Dusowa

The violin tone is sweet; his vibrato is fast and spare, in the modern fashion … if you are interested in Haydn particularly, search out this disc. If you crave good violin playing or are a chamber musician, no matter how part-time, this recording can’t fail to please you. And, if you’re a general listener, you might call your local FM station and prompt them to scatter their schedule with these elaborate rich sonatas, like spreading tulip bulbs through the lawn. Then how surprised and happy you’ll be when one of these luscious blooms pops up in front of your ears. American Record Guide
