Beethoven Sonatas for Fortepiano and Violin Volume 3 (Ian Watson and Susanna Ogata)
Susanna Ogata, violin, and Ian Watson, fortepiano, join forces to record the complete Sonatas for Fortepiano and Violin of Ludwig van Beethoven in four installments. The three sonatas on this volume were published together in 1803 as his Opus 30 and provide a remarkable trilogy displaying amazing variety and sophistication. The wide compositional range of this set demonstrates Beethoven's prowess in creating bucolic, even humorous moments, contrasted with deep intensity, pathos and the truly sublime.
