• Beethoven Violin Concerto

  Kulturpalast Dresden

  • Eberle's intonation on the Stradivari was clear and sublime, yet repeatedly charged with strong emotion. She let the cantabile passages shine, using vibrato sparingly but then emphatically. Her dialogues with the bassoon in the first movement and the finale, for example, were finely tuned. All in all, a confident and touching performance, spirited by the Philharmonic Orchestra.

  • it became evident that Eberle showed a kind of fearlessness in the work, taking familiar ground that has been trodden almost flat by her predecessors and finding a way to bring it – and us – into her own world, achieving a timeless concentration. Points of transition, both structural and emotional, became moments of daring introspection where Eberle brought her sound down to near inaudibility, or took a moment of psychological breath before moving on to the next event. Eberle grabbed us by the hand and took us on an epic journey ... Instead of the music feeling long, it felt timeless, an escape from our current stressful world.

  • Eberle has tremendous facility; there were times during her performance that I had to remind myself that playing the violin is difficult! ...in the long cadenza-like passages that begin the Allegro–Adagio, she pulled the orchestra into her wake and continued on through the Bach Chorale quotes to the end of the piece with something important to say.

  • Soloist Eberle began the work with exploratory arpeggios that blossomed into a full yet silvery tone, as conductor Canellakis sculpted an orchestral sound rich in woodwinds, horns and tuba. Youth’s defiance of gravity was evident in the dancing folk tune that closed the concerto’s first part. This idyllic scene made the explosion of grief that opened the second part all the more shocking. The violinist responded with cadenza-like passages, slashing and marcato at first, later more tender and flecked with left-hand pizzicato.

  • Eberle had already shone in two other Bach concertos (BWV1060 and 1042), with crystal-clear and at the same time intimate tones with little vibrato, with highly musically phrased instrumental-vocal lines...

  • When Eberle entered with her opening solo, rich in colors yet simple in line, her intimately reflective attitude shone through. Eberle’s dialogue with the bassoons in thirds was intense and lapidary, her sense of quiet before the big striding triplets was deeply affecting and her triplets against the long lines of the strings were captivating. She navigated Fritz Kreisler’s cadenza with finesse, toning down the pyrotechnics in favor of warmth and sentiment, as if it had been written by Beethoven himself. She played the big arching passages exquisitely and the cadenza was spontaneous, after which she had a special sweetness left for her last upward phrases before Poppen and the orchestra ended with a tremendous shout, and the grandeur of the whole performance was complete.

  • the great soloist Veronika Eberle on the violin takes the music absolutely seriously and does not play at all in order to showcase her own, undoubtedly very great, virtuosity. Rather, she has retained - even in this iconic work - something researching and not very established, which fits the approach and purpose of the entire evening very well: looking beyond one's own horizon, helping, noticing fellow human beings who need help and standing up for society !

  London Symphony Orchestra with Sir Simon Rattle

  Mar 2022

  • Veronika Eberle brings a spotlessly pure and serene tone to her Beethoven playing, as I recall from a memorably spacious account of the D major Concerto which she gave with Rattle six years ago...Still hand in glove in their approach, Eberle and Rattle brought a numbed stillness to the Largo, into which Widmann’s uncanny, ethereal cadenza dovetailed quite naturally, developing into a dialogue with the LSO’s leader...When the LSO Live album of the concert appears, it should make for essential listening.

  Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin with Robin Ticciati

  Mar 2023

  • Die deutsche Violinistin Veronika Eberle gelangt in ihrem ernsthaften Zugang zur innigen Deutung von Bergs Musik. Neben wie selbstverständlicher, technischer Brillanz, betört der dunkel singende Geigenton, der doch flexibel bleibt. In nebulöser Eleganz, sich aller Obszönität enthaltend, fusionieren Orchester und Solovioline im symbiotischen Musizieren.

  • Mozart’s much loved Violin Concerto No 3 ... proved a veritable celebration in G major that was laden with subtlety and tonal refinement in her solo part. Eberle’s playing in the opening Allegro was joyous, spurring plenty of convivial musical conversation with the Sinfonietta players. Returning to the stage, the German soloist immersed herself in this new world of sound [Hosokawa] with deep conviction. Eberle’s playing aptly blossomed as life (the violin) emerged. Where more urgency and extended technique came into play, Eberle’s playing was ever assured.
