CELLO SONATAS FULL OF LONGING AND HOPE

Cellist Johannes Moser and pianist Andrei Korobeinikov present Bohuslav Martinů’s complete cello sonatas. These works belong to the most significant twentieth-century repertoire for cello and piano. Reflecting Martinů’s troubled existence, defined by wartime, emigration, longing for the homeland, yet also full of hope and life-affirming energy, the music seems entirely topical in our own troubled times. After their award-winning recording of works by Prokofiev and Rachmaninoff from 2016, Moser and Korobeinikov demonstrate their congeniality once more, fully realizing the extreme interdependence of cello and piano in these works.
Johannes Moser has a vast Pentatone discography, consisting of releases with cello concertos of Dvořak and Lalo (2015), Elgar and Tchaikovsky (2017), Lutosławski and Dutilleux (2018), works for cello and piano by Felix and Fanny Mendelssohn (2019) and Fernando Velázquez’s cello concerto (2022). His recording of works for cello and piano by Rachmaninoff and Prokofiev (2016), performed together with Andrei Korobeinikov, was awarded with a diapason d’or and ECHO Klassik 2017.
