About

The album contains recordings of three sonatas by Paul Hindemith, who began his compositional career under the influ ence of Claude Debussy - who was still active back then - and ended it in a com pletely different reality of the 1960s, in the era of sonoristic, formal and har monic experiments. He was also an excel lent violist, hence a significant number of his works dedicated to viola. The first sonata is still of a romantic nature; it cap tivates us with it's beauty and richness of motifs, whereas the other two are much more contemporary in terms of sound. All of them are demanding, both technically and structurally. Maria Shetty, a violist associated with the Cracow Academy of Music and the NOSPR, chamber musician, co-founder of the Messages Quartet, and pianist Monika Wilinska-Tarcholik form a perfect duo. They guide the listener through complex, meaningful musical matter with virtuoso flair and with great sensitivity to tone colour and stylistic details.
