The middle work in the three late chamber music sonatas was composed in spring 1915, directly after the cello sonata (HN 633). The innovative combination of sounds ' a wind instrument, a stringed instrument, and a plucked instrument ' greatly contributes to the impression of restrained melancholy. Debussy himself confirmed it, saying: 'It is terribly sad. And I do not know whether one should laugh…

When it was composed in 1849, the French horn was still fairly new, enabling players to play previously unheard-of runs and free mod…

Par FAURE GABRIEL. Immediately after finishing his second Violin Sonata op. 108, Fauré started work on a sonata for Cello and Piano in early 1917, thus realising a long-conceived plan. In their predisposition and attitude, both works are very closely related. In the Cello sonata, a sombre, dramatic opening movement is also followed by a calm, relaxed slow middle movement and a graceful finale. The…

Par BRUCH MAX. Aside from his popular Violin Concerto no. 1, “ Kol Nidrei ” numbers among Max Bruch ’s most famous compositions.
