Osostowicz/Tong - Ludwig van Beethoven: Violin Sonatas - Plus Vol. 1

The launch of Somm Recordings' inspirational Beethoven Plus series sees violinist Krysia Osostowicz and pianist Daniel Tong commissioning 10 leading contemporary composers to write 'companion' pieces for � and inspired by � Beethoven's seminal set of 10 Violin Sonatas. The result is a fascinating conversation between past and present in which Beethoven's mastery of the form receives illuminating � and often surprising � commentary from entirely modern perspectives. Volume 1 focuses on Beethoven's first five Violin Sonatas � Opp. 12 (Nos. 1-3), 23, 24 � and the Third Sonata from his Op. 30. They are each coupled with first recordings of their new companion pieces.
