Anthony Marwood, violin; Aleksandar Madzar, piano

Robert Schumann (1810-1856)
Violin Sonata No. 1 in A minor Op.105 (1851) / Violin Sonata No. 2 in D minor Op.121 (1851) / Violin Sonata No.3 in A minor Wo0 27 (1853)

Awarded the prestigious title of "Instrumentalist of the Year' by the Royal Philharmonic Society in 2006, British violinist Anthony Marwood is internationally celebrated for his engaging and insightful performances. For Schumann's three Violin Sonatas, he is joined by Aleksandar Madzar, recently praised by Classical Music Magazine as matchless 'in terms of technique and interpretation'. Considered by many to be the product of a tired mind hovering on the edge of insanity, these richly impassioned works are filled with restlessness, melancholy, and fractured lyricism.
