about

Beethoven wrote for the cello throughout his career, even if all of this solo production remains finally small. If the singing voice of the instrument pleased him (witness the ardent and lyrical Trios Op. 1), no cello concerto, but only five sonatas (as well as sets of popular variations on popular themes by Handel and Mozart) which mark the three periods of composition of the master of Boon. The Sonatas Op. 5 amaze and innovate; for the first time in the history of the cello repertoire, both instruments are invested with equal importance, the writing on the piano being hardly less audacious and rapid, forcing the two musicians to constantly respond to each other in a dignified dialogue of the most equal of string quartets.
