Tharaud,Alexandre Brahms: Sonatas Hungarian Dances CD

Pianist Alexandre Tharaud and cellist Jean-Guihen Queyras are long-established as a duo team, but this is the first time that Queyras has joined Tharaud for an Erato recording. They have chosen works that lie at the heart of the Romantic repertoire, all by Brahms: his two cello sonatas and the duo's own transcriptions of six of the Hungarian Dances.
