Program notes

Two icons of classical music share the stage in this series of three vintage concerts filmed at Chicago's Symphony Center in the early 1990s. Renowned virtuosos and close personal friends Itzhak Perlman and Daniel Barenboim treat us to an unforgettable performance of the complete set of Brahms's masterful sonatas for violin and piano. In this first recording, the pair play the captivating yet delicate Sonata No. 1 in G major (nicknamed the "Regensonata"), a singular masterpiece underpinned by melancholic harmonies, overtop of which Brahms takes us through an astonishingly large range of emotions.
