Violinsonaten nos. 4 & 5 “Frühling”

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Gidon Kremer & Martha Argerich

Violinsonaten nos. 4 & 5 are a set of violin sonatas by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed and published around 1801. Rooted in the Classical style, the works balance clear formal structures and lyrical violin–piano interplay with moments of increased expressive range, reflecting Beethoven's early-period expansion of his chamber-music language and foreshadowing the greater dramatic contrasts of his middle period.
