Our Take

Sviatoslav Richter, Oleg Kagan, and Yuri Bashmet have teamed up to bring us a mesmerising collection of Shostakovich sonatas that will have you reaching for the nearest tissue box. Kagan's violin work is a virtuosic display of emotion, while Bashmet's viola playing adds a rich depth to the compositions. Richter's accompanying piano work is nothing short of masterful, weaving in and out of the melodies with ease.

The trio's chemistry is undeniable, with each musician complementing the others perfectly. Kagan's crisp, clear tones contrast beautifully with Bashmet's rich, velvety sound, creating a sonic tapestry that is as complex as it is captivating. Richter's dynamic playing provides the perfect foundation for his partners to shine, adding a touch of nuance and flair to each track.

From the haunting melodies of the violin sonatas to the brooding depths of the viola pieces, this album is a showcase of the emotional range and technical skill of these three incredible musicians. Whether you're a die-hard Shostakovich fan or simply appreciate great music, this album is a must-listen for anyone with ears.

So grab your headphones, settle in with a cup of tea, and prepare to be blown away by the sheer brilliance of Richter, Kagan, and Bashmet. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
