Description

This Boundary-Challenging new recording of Beethoven’s complete Sonatas for Piano and Violin features the acclaimed duo: violinist Shunske Sato and pianist Shuann Chai.

How far can you push Beethoven’s music?  What’s the breaking point?  Is there one?  Shuann Chai (fortepiano) and Shunske Sato (violin) delve into this wonderful world of emotionality and arresting drama, inspired by the wealth of writings by and about Beethoven. Embracing historical sources and performance practices, they seek to inhabit and unleash the magic and message that these sonatas, even after two centuries, can move us with.

The motivation to make this recording arose when Shunske Sato and Shuann Chai played all Sonatas as a mini-marathon. It turned out to be a worthy endeavor: they got tremendously positive feedback. This recording allows them to share ‘their’ Beethoven with even more people.
