Liebestod - Works for Violin and Piano

Friedemann Eichhorn, Fazıl

Turkish pianist and composer Fazıl Say is joined by his long-standing friend, the violinist Friedemann Eichhorn, in an album of mid-19th-century German repertoire. Influenced by Liszt, Say’s ingenious transcriptions of the Prelude and Liebestod from Wagner’s Tristan und Isolde are heard here in world premiere recordings. The composite F–A–E Sonata of Dietrich, Schumann and Brahms is seldom encountered as a whole, while Schumann’s Violin Sonata No. 1, though written at a time of unhappiness, contains moments of glorious beauty and intimacy.

Robert Schumann (1810-1856) , Johannes Brahms (1833-1897) , Albert Dietrich (1829-1908) , Richard Wagner (1813-1883)

Eichhorn is a very fine player – his tone is handsome, his intonation solid and his phrasing flexible and expressive – but he’s not an interpretative risk-taker like Kopatchinskaja, and that’s probably for the best. What we have here instead are thoughtfully and consistently musical performances that are wholly satisfying in their own right.
