Two Sonatas for Cello and Piano

Album by Gabriel Fauré & Monique Fallot & Guy Fallot

Two Sonatas for Cello and Piano is a set of two sonatas for cello and piano by French composer Gabriel Fauré, composed in 1917 and 1921. They exemplify Fauré's late-period chamber style, featuring lyrical melodies, an economical yet rich harmonic language with modal and chromatic inflections, and they occupy a place in his late output as works that consolidate his movement toward greater concision and refined harmonic nuance.
