Marking the 200th anniversary of Beethoven’s death, Matthew Barley and Mishka Rushdie Momen perform three cello sonatas spanning his creative lifetime.

The early Op.5 sonata is full of youthful abundance and energy, with especially virtuosic piano parts. The last of Beethoven’s five cello sonatas, Op.102 in D major features a sublime slow movement of aching beauty and simplicity. Finally, the Op.69 sonata was written in a period when Beethoven was exhausted and depressed with deafness, yet the sonata is bursting with invention and brilliance.

Beethoven

Cello Sonata No.2 in G minor, Op.5 No.2
Cello Sonata No.5 in D major, Op.102, No.2
Cello Sonata No.3 in A major, Op.69
