About
Placed last on the disc, the D major Sonata, WoO22, was composed first but revised late in life, without compromising its playful, carefree charm. The First Sonata, op.16, is Schoeck’s first major composition, written in 1909 and dating from his mid‐twenties after he had completed studies with Max Reger at the Leipzig Conservatoire. This was the institution which more than any other of the era was the finishing school for composers who would go on to plough original furrows in their own lands, informed by but running parallel to the determined innovations of Stravinsky and the Second Viennese School, principal among them Busoni, Delius, Albeníz and Janáček.
The Second Sonata, op.46, dates from 1931 and is nominally cast in E major but inevitably moves away from a consistent tonal centre according to the temper of its times; Schoeck had by then written the opera Penthesilea (1923‐25) which experiments with an atonality influenced by Berg’s Wozzeck. The dusty reception given to the opera persuaded Schoeck to retreat from such innovation, and the Sonata is written in an austerely neoclassical style, with a more detached and restrained language. With its almost lunar abstractness and the frenzy of the writing – in which the two instruments seem almost continuously to go each their own way – the Scherzo is probably the sonata’s most successful movement.
Maristella Patuzzi’s latest album of Piazzolla’s music was released on Decca to wide acclaim. Her previous albums for Brilliant Classics include music by Bloch (BC95015), also partnered by her father, and the Violin Concerto of Manuel de Sica (BC94905).
