Portrait Berlin 1953 - 1966 on CD

The Hungarian violinist Johanna Martzy,

considered one of the great hopes of

her generation during the 1950s, in fact

experienced a recording career that

was to last a mere four years, beset as

she was by doubts and introversion

outweighing her longing and temptation

to live a life in the limelight.

She is however, a legend amongst

experts; her recordings are rare

collector's items.

She selected her repertoire with great

care and mastered it utterly; her clear,

brilliant tone, without any frills, is easy

to recognize.

These important 1953-66 recordings

stand as further testament to her talent.
