Our Take

Matt Haimovitz and Christopher O'Riley are like the dynamic duo of classical music, bringing a fresh and innovative take on Beethoven's Complete Sonatas and Variations for Pianoforte and Violoncello. This album is a rollercoaster of emotions, taking you from moments of quiet contemplation to exhilarating bursts of energy.

Haimovitz's cello playing is nothing short of mesmerizing, with each note vibrating with emotion and depth. O'Riley's piano skills are equally impressive, adding a layer of complexity and nuance to each piece. Together, they create a symbiotic musical relationship that is truly mesmerising.

The duo's interpretation of Beethoven's works is unique and refreshing, giving a modern twist to these timeless classics. They bring a sense of playfulness and spontaneity to the music, keeping the listener on their toes and engaged throughout the album.

From the haunting beauty of the slow movements to the fiery passion of the fast ones, Haimovitz and O'Riley showcase their virtuosity and musicality in every track. This album is a must-listen for any classical music lover looking for a fresh take on Beethoven's iconic works. So sit back, relax, and let Haimovitz and O'Riley take you on a musical journey like no other.
