Sonatas for Cello and Piano
Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Leonard Elschenbroich & Alexei Grynyuk
Sonatas for Cello and Piano is a set of five sonatas by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed between 1796 and 1815. They blend Classical-era forms with growing Romantic expressivity, featuring intimate lyrical passages and virtuosic interplay between cello and piano, and they trace Beethoven's development from his early classical style through to his more introspective middle and late-period writing.
