Noskowski, known primarily as a symphonic composer, wrote a Sonata in A minor—a majestic work that evokes the influence of Beethoven’s “Kreutzer Sonata” and Brahms. Opening with a striking unison at the beginning of the first movement, the violin and piano weave together a flowing melody. The second movement is written in a variation form that seems to follow the model of the “Kreutzer Sonata,” while the third movement unfolds with passionate music driven by a lively tarantella-like rhythm.\nJerenski is a composer known for the opera *Janek*, which incorporates Polish folk music, and was also widely active as a teacher. This violin sonata, composed around 1879 during his mature period, unfolds eloquent music while adhering to traditional stylistic conventions: a lively first movement, a second movement with a mazurka-like rhythm, and a passionate third movement introduced by a leisurely introduction. The performance is by Lorons Kayalei, a Swiss violinist known for his recordings of violin sonatas by Rah and Metner. The tone produced by his 1742 Pietro Guarneri is truly captivating.\nNaxos Japan\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Naxos","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53374640455969,"sku":"4945604742207","price":2421.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4945604742207.jpg?v=1787632142","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/4945604742207","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
