About this product
The magic, enigma and uniqueness of Ludwig van Beethoven's (1770-1827) Sonata InchKreutzerInch in A major Op. 47 have influenced not only music history but also literature from Tolstoy to Dürrenmatt, and it takes a long search to find a chamber music work that has a similar nimbus. Wild and untamed not only the work itself but also it's history of creation appears. Beethoven wrote the InchKreutzer SonataInch for the violinist George Bridgetower (1778-1860), who spent some time in Vienna in 1803 and became friends with Beethoven. After an unusually short period of creation by Beethoven's standards, the sonata was premiered at the Augarten in Vienna by Bridgetower and the composer at the piano. Bernd Alois Zimmermann (1918-1970) was the great loner of classical music in Germany after the end of the war and wrote one of the most interesting chamber music works of those years with the Violin Sonata from 1950. Zimmermann has spent his entire life dealing with Beethoven and his music is often interwoven with Beethoven's work, so that a coupling of the sonatas is obvious. The Violin Sonata (1950) is a great example of his InchpluralisticInch compositional style in which different styles, past and present merge. While Beethoven and Zimmermann are indeed looking to the future with their works, Johannes Brahms' (1833-1897) Viola Sonata in E flat major Op. 120/2 is a work of retrospect. Brahms had announced Inchtwo modest sonatasInch for clarinet after his new encounter with clarinetist Richard Mühlfeld in Ischl/Austria in the summer of 1894, and conceived his last two instrumental works simultaneously for viola and piano. The Sonata in E flat major is Brahms' last instrumental work, followed only by the InchFour Serious SongsInch and the chorale preludes op. 122.

![Duo Maiss You - Violin / Viola & Piano 2 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/12914f8f-81ca-4036-8a8b-bcb467f1b00d.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
On this recording the Duo MAISS YOU presents two standard works of the modern classical literature, Bela Bartók's Sonata for Violin and Piano Nr. 2 (1922) and Leoš Janácek's Sonata for Violin and Piano (1914-21), contrasting them with the Sonata for Viola and Piano Op. 156 (2018 / World Premiere Recording) by the contemporary composer Roland Leistner-Mayer (b.1945). Bartók and Janácek (who were both dedicated ethnomusicologists) take the folk music of their Hungarian and Moravian native countryside as starting point for bold and inspired creations. For both composers, the return to folk music was not a nostalgic longing for the good old days, but a source of new ways of expression which they then expand and develop; an enrichment of modern music with a folk music-inspired facet. The composer Roland Leistner-Mayer, born in Bohemia, distanced himself from the experimental avant-garde in favour of an expressive, authentic musical diction. He has found stimulus and inspiration in the modern style of Bartók and Janácek, among others, which he has taken up fruitfully and made his own. The Duo MAISS YOU was founded by Burkhard Maiss and Ji-Yeoun You. The duo formation is dedicated to the violin and piano and - to the same degree - to the sister genre for viola and piano. In order exciting combinations of compositions even within a single program, the duo utilizes both and the viola in their concerts - a practice only rarely present in nowaday's concert life.
