Brahms: Cello Sonatas

Pontinen; Thedeen

Torleif Thedéen and Roland Pöntinen made their first recording together almost 25 years ago and have continued to play together ever since. They have recorded works by Prokofiev and Anton Webern, by Shostakovich and Hindemith, by Chopin and Schumann. Now the turn has come to Johannes Brahms's two Cello Sonatas, central works in the repertoire of all cellists and often on the programme when this particular team gives a recital.

Collectors Reviews

Both players are discerning and masterly colourists, but they never overspend their capital. The phrasing is big, and the phrases cohere into units of near-epic reach. It's not, however, this that gives their playing its 'symphonic' stamp but rather their grasp of the music's organic nature...the playing reminds me of the classic Rubinstein-Piatigorsky accounts of 1966...
