Andrew Wan, concertmaster of the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal, and Charles Richard-Hamelin, internationally acclaimed pianist and silver medalist of the Chopin Concours, unite their musical affinities in a highlight of the romantic repertoire. In the three violin sonatas of Brahms they span a broad expressive range from the intimate lyricism of Op. 78 to the radiant warmth of Op. 100 and the dramatic intensity of Op. 108. Their interpretation combines depth, balance and intensity, supported by a rich and resonant recording sound.
