Order Now Hahn Sonata In C Major, For Violin And Piano

“Having been considered as a ‘fashionable’ and ‘cliché’ composer of his day, Hahn’s compositions are possibly not as well-known as they ought to be. Sonata in C major for Violin and Piano, however, shatter these prejudices held, representing the engaging diversity of the composer’s music. Venezuelan-born Reynaldo Hahn (1875-1947) entered the Paris Conservatoire at 10 years old. He received a high standard of musical education from Decombes, Lavignac, Dubois and Massenet, before becoming a prolific and versatile composer himself, writing works for all genres. For Hahn, music was a magical art and his compositions often contain expressions of his otherwise hidden emotions and moods. Sonata in C major contains a variety of different features, making for a pleasant and evocative piece for advanced violinists.”
