The best performances ever recorded are available again! Violinist Arthur Grumiaux and pianist Clara Haskil have become legendary in their own right. But when performing chamber music together they turned out to be a match made in heaven.
Amongst other works they recorded Beethoven’s 10 sonatas for piano and violin – in that order ! These have become a standard in themselves. This set of 3 CD’s contains some of the most beautiful classical music played in an unsurpassable way.
Recordings made in Vienna in 1956 and 1957.
