This new recording contains Brahms’ complete music in which the viola
plays a solo part: the two Sonatas Op. 120 and the 2 Gesänge Op. 91,
for alto, viola and piano.
Brahms’ two viola sonatas are masterworks of his late style: the perfect handling of the sonata form
sets the structure for autumnal reminiscenses and melancholic
introspection, alternated by either passionate or tender interludes.
Beautiful
performances by violist Luca Sanzò and pianist Maurizio Paciariello,
who made an excellent recording of Hindemith’s Viola Sonatas for
Brilliant Classics (BC94782): “Strong performance….a real winner”
(Musicweb).
A special treat is the voice of Sara Mingardo in the
Zwei Gesänge, one of the foremost altos of today, who sung with Claudio
Abbado, Riccardo Chailly, Myung-Whun-Chung, Rinaldo Alessandrini. (Presto Classical)
