Ludwig van Beethoven: Cellosonaten Nr.1-5 Die Version auf 2CD in Standard- Auflage. Diese besondere Auflage wurde veröffentlicht in Europa im Verlag Alpha Classics am 8. Mai 2020.

Beethoven's extremely fascinating works for cello and piano are so fascinating because they cover all periods of his musical development. Nicolas Altstaedt uses an instrument with gut strings (a Guadagnini from 1749) and a classical bow for his outstanding recording on the ALPHA CLASSICS label. Alexander Lonquich is Altstaedt's reliable recital partner of many years and plays here on the original Graf piano from 1826. The combination of these instruments produces a transparent, finely tuned sound and a range of extraordinary timbres.

Ludwig van Beethoven: Cellosonaten Nr.1-5 Die Version auf 2CD in Standard- Auflage. Diese besondere Auflage wurde veröffentlicht in Europa im Verlag LEONA am 10. Januar 2020.

Beethoven's cello works (sonatas and variations) were composed between 1797 and 1817. Already the first two sonatas, opus 5, testify to the great importance the young composer attached to these compositions. Opus 5 was certainly ahead of its time and, like the Sonata Pathetica, already expresses a very distinctive and revolutionary style. The undisputed masterpiece of maturity is Op. 69 of 1808, which is unanimously considered his masterpiece for this instrumentation. The last two sonatas of Op. 102 (1815) are already part of Beethoven's mystical and experimental period, culminating in the last abstract string quartets. The variations he produced during these 20 years are beautiful compositions with no experimental or progressive character. Pierre Fournier recorded these works twice: in 1967 with Wilhelm Kempff and for the first time in 1959 (heard here) with Friedrich Gulda. Very good sound quality.
