Yesterday:

Sounds a little Cagey to me!

[Sorrano]

Brahms:
2nd 'cello sonata

Seems like I've heard at least part of that not too long ago. I think it was featured on Performance Today. The host talked about it being more of a Cello/Piano Sonata as both parts were composed to be equal partners. What I heard of it I enjoyed a lot.

[Enrique]

Yeah, I was listening to Radio Antena 2 from Portugal and couldn't make who the composer was. But then some unmistakable Brahms' sounds made me realize it was he, and the speaker afterwards confirmed it.

About your comment about both parts, cello and piano, being equally important I think the same happens in the Beethoven cello sonatas.

[Roehre]

Sounds a little Cagey to me!

Brendel/ASMF/Marriner

[Roehre]

Today:

Schumann:
Albumblätter op.124
Despite the high opus number suggesting 1852 or so this work consists of pieces composed between 1837 and 1845/1850.
It is possible to put them in their approximate right chronological order by just listening to them, suggesting that there is an actual development in Schumann’s output detectable.

Stravinsky:
Persephone (1934)

Gounod:
Gallia (1871)
Mireille: Overture and Act II- Ourrias (1865)
Funeral March of a Marionette (1873 orch 1879)
Romeo and Juliet: Act II complete (1867)
(All R3: CotW- iPlayer)

Berio:
Piano sonata
