FAURÉ Elegy
PIERNÉ Sonata op 46
DEBUSSY Sonata
RITA STROHL Great dramatic Sonata
The powerful, pearly tone of the piano and the warm, expressive sound of the cello have inspired French composers to write sublime works. From Fauré's poignant Elegy to the alternately lyrical and ironic tone of Debussy's Sonata, not forgetting Pierné's majestic Sonata and Strohl's Great dramatic Sonata, a whole refined and shimmering musical world is revealed, with a very French elegance.
