Mutter started playing the piano at age five. Shortly after, she began playing the violin, studying with Erna Honigberger and Aida Stucki.
After winning several prizes, she was exempted from school to dedicate herself to her art. When she was 13, conductor Herbert von Karajan invited her to play with the Berlin Philharmonic. In 1977, she made her debut at the Salzburg Festival and with the English Chamber Orchestra under Daniel Barenboim.
At 15, Mutter made her first recording of the Mozart Third and Fifth Violin Concertos with von Karajan and the Berlin Philharmonic. The same year, she was named Artist of the Year.
In 1980, she made her American debut with the New York Philharmonic under Zubin Mehta. In 1985, at the age of 22, she was made an honorary fellow of the Royal Academy of Music (London) and head of its faculty of international violin studies. In 1988, she made a grand tour of Canada and the United States, playing for the first time at Carnegie Hall. In 1998 she played and recorded for CD and DVD the complete set of Beethoven's Violin Sonatas, accompanied by Lambert Orkis; these were broadcast on television in many countries.
Though her repertoire includes many classical works, Mutter is particularly known for her performances of modern music. A number of pieces have been especially written for or dedicated to her, including Henri Dutilleux's Sur le Même Accord, Witold Lutosławski's Partita, Krzysztof Penderecki's Second Violin Concerto and Wolfgang Rihm's Gesungene Zeit ("Time Chant"). She has received various prizes, including several Grammys. She also owns two Stradivarius violins (The Emiliani of 1703, and the Lord Dunn-Raven of 1710).
In October 2006, on French television, Mutter appeared to indicate that she would be retiring when she turned 45, in 2008. However the following month she said that her words were "misinterpreted" and that she would continue to play as long as she felt she could "bring anything new, anything important, anything different to music”.
In 1989, Mutter married her first husband, Detlef Wunderlich, with whom she had two children, Arabella and Richard. Detlef died in 1995. She married the pianist and conductor André Previn in 2002, living in Munich with him and her children.
On 21 August 2006, Mutter's office announced that she and André Previn had divorced. The couple were rumoured to have separated three months previously, but confirmed their divorce as of the above date.

My Name
Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) was one of the greatest composers of all time. Among his many works, the Concerto for Two Violins in D minor, BWV 1043, also known as the Double Violin Concerto, stands out as a masterpiece of Baroque music.
The concerto was composed around 1730, when Bach was the director of the Collegium Musicum in Leipzig, a musical society that gave regular concerts. Bach wrote the concerto for two solo violins, strings and basso continuo (a group of instruments that provide the harmonic foundation).
The concerto consists of three movements: a fast and lively Vivace, a slow and expressive Largo ma non tanto, and a final Allegro that combines elements of fugue and ritornello (a recurring musical theme). The two solo violins have a subtle yet expressive relationship throughout the work, engaging in dialogue, imitation and counterpoint.
The concerto is one of Bach's most successful works, and has been admired by musicians and audiences for centuries. It showcases Bach's skill in writing for multiple voices and his mastery of musical forms and structures. The concerto is also a testament to Bach's creativity and originality, as he adapted and transformed the Italian concerto style to suit his own musical vision.
The concerto was arranged by Bach himself for two harpsichords around 1736-1737, and was performed by his son Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach in Frankfurt an der Oder in the 1730s. The original score and parts were inherited by Carl Philipp Emanuel after his father's death, but the score is now lost. The concerto was rediscovered in the 19th century and has since become one of the most popular and frequently performed works by Bach.
The concerto is a musical treasure that deserves to be heard and appreciated by everyone.

When two titans of the violin get together without a hint of ego and subjugate their genius to the greatest titan of them all, Bach, this is the result. Pure music from beginning to end: no gimmicks, no showing off, no vying for supremacy. Even a modest orchestra played beyond itself, inspired, no doubt, by being in the presence of titans, present and past. The second movement, of course, ranks among the very highest achievements of mankind in any field. It makes one feel privileged to be alive!

todays artist are not acting in this way animore. They find their name more important than the name of the composer. that is also what I like of Menuhim and Oistrakh: they play the music but do not show emotions.
