Enescu / Strauss / Poletaev- Complete Works for Violin & Piano 2 (CD)
A Prodigious talent as a performer, Pablo Casals dubbed George Enescu the greatest musical phenomenon since Mozart. his compositions occupy a special place among the vast repertoire of works for violin and piano. Enescu wrote the spirited first sonata aged 16, synthesizing the influence of Beethoven and Brahms into a work with rich, symphonic textures and remarkable polyphonic sophistication. the late andantino Malinconico is a haunting musical labyrinth, while the unpublished tarantella is as close as Enescu came to writing a virtuoso violin Morceau. the first of this two-volume set can be found on Naxos 8.572691.
