Beethoven’s Spring Sonata is known for its sunny and perennially fresh outlook, while Brahms’ lyrical Sonata is tender and nostalgic for youth. These two greats are performed alongside Debussy’s ground-breaking Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun, arranged for violin and piano by Ukrainian violinist Aleksey Semenenko who has been noted for his ‘powerful technique’ (The New York Times).
