ShostakovitchÕs
Viola Sonata was written just before his death, inspiring Khachaturian to write
his Solo Sonata just months later. BacewiczÕ last published work was a viola
concerto, and Martinu returned to the viola near the end of his life. The music on this CD are profound works,
possibly among the most moving pieces ever written by these composers.
This is CorteseÕs
third CD on Crystal Records. The American Record Guide said his
Òperformances are elegant. The technique of Cortese is superb.Ó
