This is the seemingly unavoidable Sibelius/Tchaikovsky pairing, one that has launched many a young career. Itzhak Perlman recorded these very same pieces for his own debut album on RCA, and with this very orchestra under Erich Leinsdorf. That's a fine disc, but Perlman would later surpass those efforts in later recordings. Nor do I find Leinsdorf an ideal partner, with the comically booming percussion in the Sibelius perhaps the biggest audible gaffe. These current readings are much more satisfying overall. Mullova has not redone these pieces, nor is she prone to recording much at all, so these early efforts deserve credit for holding up so well. Ozawa proves himself to be a sensitive collaborator, and the Boston Symphony plays far better for him than they did for Leinsdorf years before. Mullova has a reputation for being a very serious artist, and her sense of commitment and purpose is occasionally undermined by a lack of playfulness. The Tchaikovsky sounds stunning from a technical perspective then, but misses some the romantic depth of feeling most of us look for in this music. On the other hand, the Sibelius responds very well to the violinist's unique temperament, and still counts among the finer versions around. The 1985 sound remains equally impressive.–Brian Wigman
