Brahms:Violin SonatasOpis:Product DescriptionAward-winning violinist Christian Tetzlaff together with pianist Lars Vogt offer an exciting program of Violin Sonatas by Johannes Brahms (18331897). This new release continues a successful series of recordings of violin chamber works by the artist duo. Johannes Brahms' Violin Sonatas are among the greatest masterpieces in 19th century chamber music. Brahms wrote these sonatas between 1878 and 1888, at the height of his creative powers. With these powerful works Brahms brought the genre of violin sonatas into a new dimension. Included is also Scherzo movement from the F. A. E. Sonata which Brahms contributed to a composite sonata with Robert Schumann and Albert Dietrich in 1853.

ReviewThese top-flight soloists, well established as a duo, have returned to Brahms s three violin sonatas which they first recorded live in 2002. Written within the space of 10 years (1878-88) with his violinist friend Joseph Joachim in mind, each work has a questing lyricism, vividly captured here. Christian Tetzlaff's distinctive, quicksilver playing, capable of extreme pianissimo, suits the intensity and introspection in each: Op 78 in G major with its melancholic mood swings, the breathless fragility of Op 100 in A major and the restlessness of Op 108 in D minor. The performances are agile, airborne, refreshingly unpredictable and alive with exhilarating freedom. **** --Observer, 14/08/16Christian Tetzlaff and Lars Vogt take obvious pleasure in details without losing sight of the larger picture. GRAMOPHONE RECORDING OF THE MONTH. Gramophone, Sept'16 /// Beautiful playing, tonally and expressively, and very musical. Performance *** Recording **** BBC Music Magazine,Nov'16 /// These are thought-provoking and scrupulously intelligent performances. --MusicWeb,Jan'17Peers but individuals too; and the tellingly close rapport between Christian Tetzlaff and Lars Vogt is exemplified in the last movement of the G major sonata. This, a rondo in G minor, is mainly a study in introspection, content perhaps autobiographical, the theme taken from two songs Rain-song and Echo. It's a graphic study in numerous soft shades, graphically captured here. They exemplify the depth of thought, concentration and impassioned feeling that infuse these interpretations emerging as they do from quiet musing to assertive declamation, from elasticity of phrase to arching spans never tied to a metrical line. Dynamic differentiation is wide; so is the sonority of tone conjured by Lars Vogt ranging through pianissimo upwards, the bass line always powerfully round yet never strident or rackety. This is a disc to cherish. ***** --Classical Ear, Sept'16Autor:Tetzlaff/VogtNośnik:Audio CDPłyt:Język: English: Published; EnglishData wydania: 2016-01-08Waga: 0.33 gramWysokość: 0.4 cmSzerokość: 4.9 cmDługość: 5.6 cmUWAGA: Kupując produkt na tej aukcji zgadzasz się na wydłużony termin realizacji wysyłki (10-14 dni roboczych).
