Violin Sonatas

Album by Johannes Brahms & Ilya Kaler & Alexander Peskanov

Violin Sonatas is a set of three violin sonatas by German composer Johannes Brahms, composed between 1878 and 1888. They mix Romantic-era lyricism with dense harmonic writing, with violin and piano sharing technical and expressive material, and they come late in Brahms's career as he moved toward denser chamber music.

First released: February 2002
