The sixty-one-year-old Brahms lavished great care on his Op. 120 Sonatas and their prospects. He wrote to his publisher in 1895, “I say at once that immediately after the first issue I intend to make an edition for violin, for which some things would have to be changed – thus an independent edition.” Though performed frequently by Joseph Joachim, who otherwise shunned transcriptions, the composer’s violin “transcription” remained out of print for over a century until 2016. In the very same year (1895) as these sonatas were composed, eighteen-year-old Ernő Dohnányi had his first significant break in Vienna, at Brahms’ recommendation. Dohnányi’s Violin Sonata, written seventeen years later, extends Brahms’ late style into his own distinctively slippery harmonic language. These three sonatas, heard side-by-side, bid farewell to musical late Romanticism at the turn of the 20th century, and the nostalgic glow of the last years of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, a period now known in Hungary as “blissful peacetime”.
In this recording, two musicians of pioneering spirit, American violinist Jenna Sherry and Hungarian pianist Dániel Lőwenberg, dare to explore the fragile and poetic beauty of these works. The performers relish the ambiguity that performing Brahms’ Op. 120 Sonatas on violin entails: Are these “violin sonatas”? Or transcriptions of clarinet sonatas? The challenge to the performers is that of navigating between the instrumental identities of the violin, viola and (vibrato-less) clarinet embedded in the writing.
