Rachel Roberts (viola) & Lars Vogt (piano)
Brahms Op.120 sonatas were originally intended for the clarinet, but he also arranged them for viola. Presented here in a stunning recording, Rachel Roberts has established herself internationally as a soloist and chamber musician and Lars Vogt needs no introduction.
Brahms:
Clarinet Sonata No. 1 in F minor, Op. 120 No. 1 (arr. for viola)
Clarinet Sonata No. 2 in E flat major, Op. 120 No. 2 (arr. for viola)
Viola Sonata No. 1 in F minor, Op. 120 No. 1
Viola Sonata No. 2 in E flat major, Op. 120 No. 2
Schumann:
4 Märchenbilder, Op. 113
"This beautifully engineered solo recital with pianist Lars Vogt demonstrates [Roberts's] many strengths, not least a honeyed tone and a capacity to project a real sense of intimacy...In many respects their view of the music perfectly accords with the autumnal nature of Brahms's late style."
BBC Music Magazine - November 2011 ****
“Rachel Roberts brings to the Brahms sonatas an expressive intensity and sense of nostalgic longing that goes straight to the heart of these miraculous scores. She also captures memorably the spellbound fantasy of Schumann's elusive Märchenbilder...The way Roberts and Vogt gently ease the tempo and sensitively shape the magical coda of the Second Sonata's opening movement is worth the asking price alone. Highly recommended.”
