Cello Sonatas (Nos. 1-5)

Ludwig van Beethoven

Cello, Piano

Pierre Fournier, Friedrich Gulda

1959

Gil's first recommendation. A real partnership. Fournier has a very polished style with a beautiful tone and wonderful artistic judgment, and Gulda offers his own insights as a wonderful Beethoven player.

Pablo Casals, Mieczyslaw Horszowski, Otto Schulhof

Cello Sonatas Nos. 1–5; piano partners vary by sonata 1930s Historic recordings.

A historic version. Despite the primitive sound, you're going to want to hear Casals for his interpretive insights, drama, passion, and musical imagination.
