About
These three works demonstrate that he never lost his Viennese fondness for melody: his music is predominantly lyrical, within a contrapuntal framework, appealing to head and heart alike.
The Sonata for Cello and Piano, Op.89 was composed in 1953 and the two works for solo cello, the Suite and Sonata, in 1982 when he was 92 - almost the last music he wrote.
These recordings take their place in the ongoing rediscovery of Gál’s music on CD.
Alfia Nakipbekova is best known as one of the three sisters who form the Bekova Trio. She studied with Mstislav Rostropovich in Moscow but is also an important cultural figure in her native Kazakhstan.
Jakob Fichert has recorded for Naxos as well as for Toccata Classics.
