Zusammenfassung:"Stern chez Mozart" This was how the French music critic Clarendon -- the pen name of Bernard Gavoty --
deaded his review in Le Figaro on 30 January 1973. The previous evening, Isaac Stern had performed two of Mozart's violin concertos with the Orchestre de Chambre de l'ORTF under the direction of Alexander Schneider. The concert was part of a larger project devised by Pierre Vozlinsky for French television and intended to capture all Mozart's great concertos on film. In order to showcase the event and ensure that it was adequately prepared, each recording in the Buttes-Chaumont studios was preceded by a concert at the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées. To ensure that the operation was a success, top-flight soloists were needed, together with a conductor capable of rousing the Orchestre de Chambre de l'ORTF from its habitual lethargy. Vozlinsky thought that Alexander Schneider was the man for the job.
Schneider had for many years been second violinist in the Budapest Quartet and had formed numerous ensembles, engaging quality orchestras for the great cellist Pablo Casals, first at Prades and later in Porto Rico. He was also one of the pilliars of the Marlboro Music School and Festival and was passionately drawn to the Classical repertoire. The enthusiasm and charisma of "Sasha," as everyone called him, certainly worked wonders, and the Orchestre de Chambre de l'ORTF seemed transformed. But listeners will also be struck by the way in which Schneider and Stern are seen working together. Close friends and colleagues for almost forty years, the two men first met in 1935, when Stern came to hear the Budapest Quartet perform all the Beethoven and Bartok quartets at Mills College in California. Stern was then fifteen and was amazed at the perfection of their playing and the intensity of their commitment.
