Vierne: Violin Sonata in G Minor; Piano Quintet in C Minor

Both already accomplished soloists, violinist Judith Ingolfsson and pianist Vladimir Stoupel began an outstandingly successful collaboration in 2006, devoting their partnership to chamber music and cultivating uncommon repertoire. The music on this album is dedicated to composer Louis Vierne (1870-1937), whose life was marked by unfortunate events and was influenced greatly by the first world war. This album includes Vierne’s Sonata for Violin and Piano in G minor, and his Piano Quintet in C minor. Ingolfsson and Stoupel are joined by violinist Rebecca Li, violist Stefan Fehlandt, and cellist Stephan Forck for this recording.
