Overview
The artistic partnership between Isabelle Faust and Alexander Melnikov has grown over time, shaped by award-winning encounters in the recording studio and refined in the white heat of concert performance.
Their latest Wigmore Hall recital opens with the complete F.A.E. Sonata, the collaborative work of Robert Schumann, his pupil Albert Dietrich and the young Johannes Brahms, before turning to the flowing lyricism and telling expressive economy of Brahms’s mature violin sonatas.
This concert is part of the CAVATINA Chamber Music Trust ticket scheme, offering free tickets to those aged 8-25
