A minute of Brahms
Cello sonata in e minor
A piece that begins with a wonderful singing line in the deep, soulful voice of the cello.
The snippet is from a live concert played by me and my friend Kobi Kremnitzer at home in support of the charity Classics for All, which encourages the learning of Latin in state schools in the UK. Classics for All has helped teach over 70,000 young people Latin in the past ten years.If you like the beginning, there are some lovely recordings online, including this classic one with Jacqueline du Pré on the cello:
What a lovely thing to hear at the end of my day.
Very nice! I love the Brahms string sonatas. So melancholy.
