Brahms - Violin Sonata 2 [Znaider/Bronfman] Another lovely Sonata from Nikolaj Znaider, last month i was enchanted by the First Violin Sonata [5th Jan 2011], this month it's onto the Second Sonata, and in many ways it's my favourite, especially the middle movement which constantly oscillates between Andante and Vivace.
Nikolaj Znaider is Danish, born in 1975, and 35 years old today, this disc was recorded in 2005, just another mention about the booklet cover [photo by Vanessa Lenz], it's actually the back cover, and i rubbed these white transfer lettering on it to make it into a front booklet!, i feel i've done a great job, the original front cover was merely large lettering on a boring black background, and no picture at all, now it's much more pleasing, with both the violin and piano in the picture, and both the Artists visible, mainly with blacks and browns in the colours.
Here's Kyung Sun Lee playing the Andante Tranquillo second movement on YouTube.
