Description

Natural horn player Louis-Pierre Bergeron and pianist Meagan Milatz look to Beethoven as the point of departure for their new album, Bravura. The composer’s Sonata Op. 17, a masterpiece, is the first true sonata for horn and piano in the history of music.

More than 40 years separate the five works on this album ranging from the classical period with Righini and Süssmayer, to Beethoven’s successors Krufft and Potter, whose music demonstrates the evolution of the Romantic style.
