About

When Eugène Ysaÿe composed his cycle of 6 Sonatas, op. 27, for solo violin in June 1923, gut strings were still very common and highly appreciated. Statements by contemporary violinists such as Mischa Elman, Toscha Seidel and Jacques Thibaud confirm this. However, neither the dedicatees of Eugène Ysaÿe’s solo sonatas nor other contemporaries made recordings of these works.

Martin Reimann has now performed them on gut strings, and the special charm of his recording is that it gives these wonderful works a sonority that is likely to correspond to the aesthetic ideas of their time of creation.
