Franziska Pietsch and Detlev Eisinger make their audite debut with chamber works by Edvard Grieg. The three Violin Sonatas represent half his œuvre in this field, epitomising central stages in his artistic development: his emancipation from the inspirational proximity to Schumann, references to Norwegian folk music, and his expansive use of themes and time. Grieg rated these three sonatas amongst his best works.
