Adagio sostenuto - Presto A musical history turning point and a supreme masterpiece that elevated the violin sonata, which previously stayed in an accompaniment role, into a 'concerto style' where the piano and violin clash as equals. Following the tension of the opening unaccompanied violin chords, the fiery development that intensely intertwines with the piano provides dramatic thrills through Szigeti's intellectual bowing and Arrau's heavy keystrokes. ▪︎ Beethoven: Violin Sonata No. 5 in F major, Op. 24 "Spring" - I. Allegro A representative masterpiece of Beethoven's youth that sprouted the seeds of Romantic lyricism within the restrained beauty of Classicism; a movement overflowing with the pleasantness and vitality unique to the gentle F major. The flowing first theme melody sung by the violin evokes a warm spring day, and the elegant yet deep breathing of the two masters provides an excellent sense of immersion. ■ Tracklist Side 1 Beethoven: Violin Sonata No. 9 in A major, Op. 47 "Kreutzer" 1st Movement: Adagio sostenuto - Presto 2nd Movement: Andante con variazioni Side 2 3rd Movement: Finale (Presto) Beethoven: Violin Sonata No. 5 in F major, Op. 24 "Spring" 1st Movement: Allegro 2nd Movement: Adagio molto espressivo 3rd Movement: Scherzo (Allegro molto) 4th Movement: Rondo (Allegro ma non troppo)
