This third CD in a unique series of "French Cello Sonatas" presents two works from the Romantic period, the cello sonatas by Louise Farrenc (1804-1875) and Charles-Valentin Alkan (1813-1888). The sonata by Alkan is a bold, substantial work in rich romantic idiom. Alkan's superhu- man pianism is reflected in the challenging piano part. The works of female composer Louise Farrenc receive more and more recognition nowadays. Her Cello Sonata is a full blooded romantic work, a gem in the genre.
