Our Take

The latest offering from THOMPSONWATERS, a duo consisting of violinist Tom Thompson and pianist Sarah Waters, is a mesmerizing exploration of Charles Ives' violin sonatas. With their unique blend of classical expertise and contemporary sensibilities, THOMPSONWATERS breathe new life into these 14 sonatas, showcasing their technical prowess and musical chemistry.

From the moment the first notes of Sonata No. 1 in D minor fill the air, it's clear that THOMPSONWATERS are a force to be reckoned with. Thompson's virtuosic violin playing soars over Waters' deft piano accompaniment, creating a rich tapestry of sound that is both intricate and emotive.

Each sonata on the album is a testament to THOMPSONWATERS' interpretive skills, showcasing their ability to navigate Ives' complex compositions with finesse and flair. From the haunting melodies of Sonata No. 3 in D minor to the frenetic energy of Sonata No. 9 in D minor, THOMPSONWATERS never miss a beat, delivering a performance that is both technically flawless and emotionally resonant.

In conclusion, THOMPSONWATERS' rendition of Ives' violin sonatas is a tour de force that showcases their exceptional talent and musicality. Whether you're a die-hard classical music aficionado or a casual listener looking to expand your horizons, this album is a must-listen. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
