Beethoven - Three Duos for Violin and Cello


Beethoven:

Duo No. 1 in C major WoO 27/1

Duo No. 2 in F Major WoO 27/2

Duo No. 3 in B flat, WoO 27/3

Cello Sonata in F major, Op. 17 (transcribed by Beethoven from horn sonata)

7 Variations on "Bei Männern, welche Liebe fühlen", for Cello and Piano, WoO 46


Ruggiero Ricci (violin), Mihaly Virizlay (cello), Bonnie Hampton (cello) & Nathan Schwartz (piano)

Beethoven had no worries about music written for one instrument being ‘arranged’ for another. The duos on this record were originally for clarinet and bassoon. The transcribed performances are beautiful, and unmistakably Beethoven. The Op. 17 sonata was written in 1800 for piano and horn with an optional cello. The E flat variations are perhaps the best of three sets that Beethoven wrote for this combination.

"Partnership of real equality…Ricci and Virizlay play like very warm-hearted angels…the blend is impressive." Washington Sunday Star
