About "Violin Concerto in E Minor, Op. 64 : Mendelssohn: Violin Concerto in E Minor, Op. 64: I. Allegro molto appassionato –" by Anne Sophie Mutter

Mendelssohn's E-minor concerto opens with Mutter surging forward, violin line a taut wire of longing. The 'molto appassionato' is no polite rumination—it's a heart racing downhill, orchestral strings cushioning and goading. Romantic ardor and classical precision lock horns beautifully.
