This Deutsche Grammophon issue seems to be at first glance a 20th century violin concerto/concertante CD. It really is an artist CD celebrating the talented violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter.
It has Paul Sacher conducting the Stravinsky concerto and Witold Lutoslawski conducting his own music. Actually between the three of them I don't think you could get stronger performances of this music on CD.
The Stravinsky Violin Concerto is probably going to be the most familiar and easiet piece for most people to comprehend on this CD. It is in four rather than the typical three movements for a concerto. My personal opinion is that is not that strong of a piece, but through Mutter's ability the concerto is allowed to shine for all it is worth.
The Lutoslawski conversely trades off popularity for depth. Both pieces, the Partita and Chain 2, are more for contemporary tastes although in all honesty I would place them somewhere in the transistion between conservative 20th century classical music and the most severe cases of following strict rules of a new order in music.
