On the evidence of the first two volumes, the period-instrument cycle from the seasoned pairing of Isabelle Faust and Alexander Melnikov promises to match all comers in style and fantasy. ... True spontaneity is elusive in the recording studio. Faust and Melnikov give the illusion, at least, that they are responding to and recreating the music on the spot. Roll on Vol 3. 
The crisp, lucid sounds of Melnikov’s copy of a 1795 Anton Walter piano blend ideally with Faust’s “Sleeping Beauty” Stradivarius of 1704 in these duos from 1778-9. Melnikov’s playing avoids the “clattering noise” Mozart disliked in instruments other than those made by Andreas Stein (Walter’s teacher), and this musical partnership is now one of the most rewarding today.
