About
Hans Pfitzner’s violin sonata is among the most rarely played works of its genre. On this CD by Markus Wolf and Julian Riem, it comes together with the disproportionately better-known sonata by Richard Strauss, to allow us a glimpse into the world of music in Munich between the end of the 19th century and the end of the period under the emperor.
Pfitzner’s music may surely be regarded as retrospective, whilst the sonata by Richard Strauss was ahead of its time – but the parallels between the two works cannot be missed.
In this new recording, Markus Wolf may be heard for the first time playing the 'Vollrath' Stradivarius.
