5.0 out of 5 stars Expressive elegance!, April 18, 2006
This review is from: 3 Violin Sonatas (Audio CD)
Rosand was always a humble violinist, most that you ever imagine. But the refined eloquence and warm playing makes of him one of the most sublime violin players of the last Century. His exquisite and sweeping phrasing literally overwhelmed the audience. His charisma was undeniable, he never sinned of bombastic or hyper sensationalist.

His Brahms breathes noblesse and profound humanity. It is A warm reading with that lyrical vein so characteristic of the spiritual ?lan of the Hamburg ` son.

Nevertheless, you should not miss this album.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great violin player, November 23, 2003
By 
"classicaljc" (North Point,, Hong Kong) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 3 Violin Sonatas (Audio CD)
I must say that I love this cd very much especially the sonata no. 3 which this partner has played with ease and technical excellency. It is a pity that a great violinist like Mr. Rosand cannot spend more time performing in Asia. I hope that he will come to Hong Kong again, perhaps, after his retirement.

3.0 out of 5 stars Unfortunate, September 2, 2008
This review is from: 3 Violin Sonatas (Audio CD)
I am very fond of Aaron Rosand. He possesses technique and taste in abundance. I've collected his recordings since LP days. This CD, however, is disappointing, although it doesn't seem to be Rosand's fault. He is recorded very close up and forward, so that all of his playing seems to be forte or louder. Hugh Sung, by contrast, is placed in the background, rarely meshing with Rosand. On those occasions when Sung's playing comes through clearly, it sounds underinflected and very bland, no match for the playing of his partner. You could have recorded these two artists separately and then matched up the recordings, and the blend would be no worse than what we have here. I'm sorry to have to say it, but this is my first experience of a disappointing Aaron Rosand recording.
