Janacek: Violin Sonata

Isabelle Faust (violin) & Ewa Kupiec (piano)

+Lutoslawski: Subito; Partita
+Szymanowski: Mythes

This programme comprises three major 20th-century chamber works, all of them deeply rooted in the musical world of Central Europe.

The pieces by Janac•ek and Szymanowski are exactly contemporary. Composed respectively at the beginning and the end of the 20th century, Szymanowski's 'Mythes' and Lutoslawski's 'Partita' constitute two landmarks of Polish music.

March 2013

An exquisitely shaded performance of the Janacek Sonata sets up heady takes on Szymanowski's Mythes and the fizzing virtuosity of Lutoslawski's Partita.
