Notes and Editorial Reviews

Mirror in Mirror is one of the most personal recordings to date by best-selling violinist Anne Akiko Meyers, a reflective and spiritual journey that weaves a beautiful story through commissions and arrangements by Philip Glass, John Corigliano, Jakub Ciupinski and Morten Lauridsen, alongside works by Arvo Pärt and Maurice Ravel.

REVIEW:

The American violinist Anne Akiko Meyers has always had a distinctive programming sense to go with her lush tone. But she has perhaps never been more original than on this, her 33rd album. Meyers calls the album one of her most personal projects, and the description holds up even though the recordings were made at several different times. The album is at Read more once intelligently thought out, sensuously beautiful, and deeply spiritual. Highly recommended.
