Some sensations occur without much ado, as they almost seem to be a matter of course. One such sensation took place at the Berlin Philharmonic Hall in February 1978, when Herbert von Karajan introduced the 14-year-old violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter to the Berlin public in Mozart's G major Concerto. After the young musician had gone through her baptism of fire with flying colors the conductor beamed and the Berlin Philharmonic players applauded enthusiastically — a rare occurrence. Her fellow performers and the audience had been equally aware of how auspicious her debut had been.

Deutsche Grammophon's Original Source Series presents outstanding recordings from the 1970s in a whole new sound quality.
