Encyclopedic overview
Anne-Sophie Mutter (born 29 June 1963) is a German violinist. Born in Rheinfelden, Baden-Württemberg and raised in the nearby town Wehr, Mutter began playing the violin aged five and pursued further studies in Germany and Switzerland. She was supported early in her career by Herbert von Karajan, made her orchestral debut with the Berlin Philharmonic in 1977, and rose to international prominence in the early 1980s. She has since performed as a soloist with leading orchestras worldwide and has recorded more than 50 albums, mostly with the Deutsche Grammophon label, earning four Grammy Awards, two ECHO Klassik awards, two Opus Klassik awards, and a Grand Prix du Disque. Despite her success and fame in the 1980s, Mutter's interpretive style often divides critics.
Mutter's repertoire includes traditional classical violin works from the Baroque period to the 20th century, but she is particularly known for performing, recording, and commissioning new works by contemporary composers. As an advocate of contemporary music, she has had several works composed especially for her, by Thomas Adès, Unsuk Chin, Sebastian Currier, Henri Dutilleux, Sofia Gubaidulina, Witold Lutosławski, Norbert Moret, Krzysztof Penderecki, André Previn, Wolfgang Rihm, Jörg Widmann, Max Richter, and John Williams. Over the years, Mutter has repeatedly collaborated with and made recordings with conductors such as Herbert von Karajan, André Previn, Seiji Ozawa, Daniel Barenboim, James Levine, Kurt Masur, Simon Rattle, Manfred Honeck, Alan Gilbert and John Williams, as well as with her longtime recital partner, pianist Lambert Orkis.
