Amazon.com If you're looking for an intellectual challenge, here it is. Schnabel, who was renowned for his penetrating performances of Beethoven, wrote music of amazing difficulty. The Sonata for Violin Solo, composed in 1919, runs three-quarters of an hour. After hearing it several times, I'm still certain I don't understand it. Yet there are such interesting things going on that I want to understand it, despite its forbidding facade and high dissonance quotient. The Sonata for Violin and Piano isn't much easier, just shorter. At least Arte Nova makes it easy to investigate for yourself, with first-rate performances and recordings at an amazingly low price. --Leslie Gerber Similar CDs

CD ReviewsChristian Tetzlaff and the 20th Century Michael H. Lee | Commack, New York USA | 06/13/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "Although Christian Tetzlaff has done an amazing job with the repertoire for Bach and Mozart (those recordings are impossible to find and absolutely DIVINE!) its easy to see why he is clearly the master of 20th century violin repertoire. His technique is refined and is intonation is impeccable. But beyond all technical considerations his emotive qualities are first rate. 20th century music is not the easiest genre to listen to, but Christian Tetzlaff definitely makes it accessible." Tetzlaff/Schnabel Mary Grace Engisch | Millersburg, Ohio.USA. | 06/25/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "Simply superb music and equal-to-it recording quality."
