It is a bit of a paradox: one of Dragonetti's favourite pieces and also his showpiece, 'The Famous Solo”, originally for double bass and orchestra, is largely unknown today. This cannot be down to the...

Johann Nepomuk Hummel (1778-1837) is wrongly remembered, first and foremost, as Mozart's pupil. In his day he was one of the most respected pianists and was also a composer with quite some influence o...

Just as Johannes Brahms had done with his Opus 120, Reger also provided parts for two alternative solo instruments for his Sonata op. 107: 'I will also arrange the clarinet part for viola, so that the...

The unsteady life of the Belgian Vieuxtemps anticipated the European idea like hardly any other in the 19th century. The best example is the Élégie composed in 1848: it was written in St. Petersburg,...

Vieuxtemps is nowadays considered to be the foremost exponent of the Franco-Belgian violin school. Following a concert by the 14-year old 'wunderkind' in 1834, none other than Robert Schumann said: 'W...

Following the enthusiastic reception of his first Violin Sonata (HN 980), it was clear to Fauré that he would continue to write chamber music. In 1880 he wrote a little piece for cello and piano that...

Unlike some of his other late works, Franck's Violin Sonata (HN 293), composed in 1886, was well-received by the public and critics from the very start. The beautiful arrangement for cello published i...

Good intentions are simply not good enough (to freely paraphrase Kurt Tucholsky): the arpeggione, a kind of hybrid instrument like a large bowed guitar, never won acceptance among musicians. This curi...

Variations on a well-liked theme, mainly from contemporary operas, were extremely popular at the end of the 18th century. Even the young Beethoven made several contributions to this genre. We do not k...

Like his father, Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach wrote three sonatas for viola da gamba. They were written during his time at the Berlin court of Frederick the Great and gave the excellent viola da gamba pl...

La Sonata op. 38, que Brahms compuso en los meses de verano de 1862 y 1865, forma parte del repertorio estándar de todo violonchelista. La obra es un homenaje a J.S. Bach. En el primer movimiento, Bra...

Las seis suites constituyen una contrapartida de igual rango a sus seis sonatas y partitas para violín solo; ¡en el siglo XVIII se tocaban incluso en el piano! Se conservan en una versión antigua y ot...
