Two Sonatas for Piano and Cello
Album by Johannes Brahms & Nancy Green & Frederick Moyer
Two Sonatas for Piano and Cello is a set of two sonatas for piano and cello by Johannes Brahms, completed in 1865 and 1886. As Romantic-era chamber works they feature close interplay between richly textured piano writing and expressive cello lines, employing Brahms's characteristic motivic development and classical formal structures to mark an early and a later phase in his chamber music output.
