Work: Cello Sonata in C major, Op.65

Crisp and elegant cello and piano playing is more successful in French and early repertoire than in Brahms.

Alban Gerhardt and Steven Osborne offered a vivid and memorable reprise of Ben and Slava's iconic recital of 1961. 

One of the most appealing features of the concert was the friendly and casual nature with which these two young musicians presented a concert of relatively lesser-known works for cello and piano to a mostly young audience.
