Romance Av75 / Cello Sonata Op 6 - R. Strauss CD

Fate reserved quite extraordinary treatment for these two sonatas for cello and piano, two first attempts at the genre that turned out to be masterpieces. Clearly influenced by both Brahms and Mendelssohn, these two youthful sonatas, whose first performances were separated by twenty-three years, show remarkable accomplishment, a creativity and sense of balance that are quite simply miraculous. Both disowned by their respective composers, they are now among the undisputed peaks of the repertoire, as are the two Romances included on this reissue. Emmanuelle Bertrand is among the foremost representatives of the French school of cellists and a member of the ensemble Carpe Diem. Her first recording for harmonia mundi was unanimously acclaimed by the French and international press, as were her two subsequent recordings, both of which feature pianist Pascal Amoyel.Additional Info: Personnel: Artie Black, Hunter Diamond (tenor saxophone); Neil Hemphill (drums).
