Beethoven / Epstein- Complete Works Piano & Cello
Ori and Omri Epstein, best known for performing as part of the Busch Trio, make their Linn debut as a duo with a recording of Beethoven's complete works for piano and cello. Considered cornerstones of the repertory, the cello sonatas illustrate all the creative periods of the composer's working life. The two Sonatas Op. 5 are bursting with exhilarating effects.
