In the February issue of Gramophone, on sale from January 26, we interview the unstoppable Patricia Kopatchinskaja whose new violin sonatas disc seems to be, at first glance, quite conventional. Not so, finds Andrew Mellor.

Meanwhile, Michael McManus catches up with Mariss Jansons, one of this era’s greatest conductors, as he marks his 75th birthday with a momentous Bruckner recording.

Renowned pianist and accompanist Graham Johnson is our guest author of this month’s Icons, in which he pays tribute to his great friend and mentor Gerald Moore.

And new Gramophone contributor Paul Kilbey writes a compelling Contemporary Composer feature in which he explores the evocative, beguiling music of the Pulitzer Prize-winner John Luther Adams.

In addition, don’t miss our regular Collection, Classics Reconsidered and Musician and Score features, as well as the latest classical music releases reviewed by our world-leading critics.

This month, there’s even an LP round-up!
