Sonata for Cello & Piano No. 2 in G minor, Op. 63
Piano Quintet in F minor, Op. 18;

More performances from the Bregenz Festival 2010, continuing this interesting series. The main theme from Shostakovich’s First Cello Concerto is used in the finale of Weinberg’s Second Cello Sonata, a great expression of the friendship of the two composers. The Piano Quintet Op.18 is one of the most remarkable compositions to emerge from the Second World War.
