Info for Franck, Grieg, Dvorak: Sonatas for violin & piano
Großes klassisches Repertoire, Entdeckungen, Kammermusik, Konzertliteratur auf allerhöchstem Niveau: Der Geiger Renaud Capuçon begeistert als Solist in allen Bereichen. Er feierte mit Bachs Konzerten und dem modernen Gegenstück von Peteris Vasks die Kraft der Weltharmonie, ließ mit den Konzerten von Beethoven und Korngold sowie von Brahms und Berg Stilrichtungen miteinander kommunizieren und sorgte mit einer Gesamtaufnahme der Beethoven-Sonaten für eines der profiliertesten kammermusikalischen Großprojekte der letzten Jahre. Diesen Weg geht er nun weiter – an der Seite der jungen, vielfach preisgekrönten georgischen Pianistin Khatia Buniatishvili.
César Francks Sonate A-dur gehört zu den Hauptwerken des romantischen Violinrepertoires. Beeinflusst von Brahms und Beethoven und komponiert als Hochzeitsgeschenk für den legendären Geiger Eugène Ysaÿe, vereint sie formale Geschlossenheit, expressiven Überschwang und typisch französischen Farbenreichtum. Griegs Sonate op. 45 ist eines der ersten großen Werke, das im romantisch gelegenen Anwesen Troldhaugen bei Bergen entstand – inspiriert von der jungen italienischen Geigerin Teresina Tua, die den Komponisten hier besuchte. Das Werk gilt als Griegs reifste Schöpfung dieser Gattung und ist vom Kolorit der norwegischen Volksmusik geprägt. Auch die oft als »kleine« Gelegenheitswerke verkannten Romantischen Stücke von Antonín Dvorak porträtieren die Heimat ihres Komponisten. Sie gelten als feinsinige Stimmungsbilder der böhmischen Landschaft.
