| from a lunchtime recital I did with a violinist recently. We played Grazyna Bacewicz's fourth violin sonata and a berceuse by Fauré and I ended with op 119. The piano was pretty awful though - very hard to control in dynamics under mf, and none of that soft sound that you want for these pieces...worked much better for the Bacewicz sonata - a work with lots of drama and FF's...oh well. Now that I've learned this opus, it's time to start with the Handel variations! What incredible music... |
