The degree of give and take between Genisson, Ottensamer and the OM strings (particularly leader Yukari Cousineau) was consistently meritorious. Throughout, Ottensamer impressively sculpted an array of interpretive arcs.
Blue Hour
Deutsce GrammonphonMar 2019Andreas Ottensamer ... brings such a velvety tone on all registers, his first entrance after the short orchestra introduction sounds almost seductive. Ottensamer makes perfect sense of the compact, classically built first movement (adding small cadenzas to allow the orchestra entrances sound more effective). The slow movement is the highlight of this performance, with the orchestra accompaniment lovingly supportive and allowing the soloist to play with the utmost sensitivity.
