Cello Sonatas

Album by Johannes Brahms & Edvard Grieg & Jean Sibelius & Truls Mørk & Juhani Lagerspetz & Jean‐Yves Thibaudet

Cello Sonatas are two sonatas for cello and piano by Johannes Brahms, composed in 1865 and 1886. Musically they combine Romantic lyricism, rigorous classical forms and rich harmonic density, and they occupy a central place in Brahms's chamber-music output as markers of his evolving compositional style.
