For this recital Müller-Schott is joined by Russian-Australian piano virtuoso Konstantin Shamray for a program that conveys the depth and breadth of the cello and piano repertoire. Bach’s characterful Suite No. 3 in C for solo cello is followed by a dramatic shift in gear: Shostakovich’s unexpectedly neo-classical Cello Sonata, rich with sensuous lyricism that recalls Shostakovich the young silent-film composer. By contrast, Brahms’ monumental second Sonata for cello and piano showcases the work of a mature composer at the height of his powers, and proves a fitting end to a recital that showcases Müller- Schott’s wide-ranging virtuosity.
