Overview
This collection of Beethoven's works for Cello and Piano features the remarkable performance of Sergei Slovachevsky (cello) and Igor Uryash (piano). The album presents three important pieces in the cello-piano repertoire: the Sonata No.1 in F major, Op. 5 No.1, the Sonata No.3 in A major, Op. 69, and the Variations on a Theme from Mozart's "The Magic Flute," Op. 66.
The Sonata No.1 opens with a profound and lyrical first movement followed by a lively second movement, capturing Beethoven's early mastery of the genre. The Sonata No.3, one of his most beloved works for cello, offers a rich emotional depth, with the third movement showcasing Beethoven's renowned blend of drama and lightness. Completing the album is the Variations in E flat major, a playful and inventive work inspired by Mozart’s opera, demonstrating Beethoven’s genius for transforming familiar themes into something entirely unique.
With Slovachevsky’s expressive playing and Uryash’s elegant accompaniment, this album brings a fresh and engaging interpretation to these timeless works.
