Beethoven: The Complete Violin Sonatas Vol.1
These are beautiful. In Deutsche Grammophon's edition, the 1970 recording by Yehudi Menuhin and Wilhelm Kempff is superb.
After "Frühlings Sonate" there is not much that can be listened.
I personally think that Kempff played much better than Menuhin, esp. in CD1. My impression is that Menuhin played "a little bit dirty", but it adds to the playfulness of the recording, which no doubt was enjoyed very much by both interpreters.
