With his "reinventions" of some of Beethoven's best-known works, Aleksey Igudesman has surpassed himself. These violin duets can best be described as "wicked", using both the original sense of the word and its later teenagers' meaning! The fun starts with a version of "Moonlight Sonata", played mostly pizzicato, and ends with Igudesman's very own interpretation of the monumental Fifth Symphony. Dare you open this book? Love it or hate it, you will have fun!
