Renaud Capuçon and David Fray play Schubert

An undisputed master of the lied, Schubert was also highly prolific in the chamber repertoire. Although an accomplished violinist, Schubert composed only a few pieces for violin and piano. The sonatines are early works. Nine years later, he composed the brilliant rondo and the Fantasy the following year. These are works imbued with Mozart's luminous aura. Finally, the sonata known as the "Grand duo" is a later work of larger proportions and more personal writing. Sometimes performed in a four-hand piano version, we will have the privilege of hearing it in its 'original' version by two artists at the peak of their art and their musical complicity.
