BEETHOVEN
Complete Sonatas for Cello & Piano
with Frank Braley

Gautier returns to the studio with his friend and recital partner of many years, Frank Braley, in a programme of Beethoven’s Sonatas for Cello and Piano. In addition the album includes Beethoven’s wonderful variations on three different themes – two on arias from Mozart’s opera Die Zauberflöte, and the other from Handel’s Judas Maccabaeus. 'With Beethoven there’s always room for one more interpretation, and the quality of this new set is not in doubt…such is the quality of the musicianship that there are always plenty of fresh insights…the partnership is one of Classical balance, and the result is by turns poised, polished, intimate and exuberant…undeniably a class act'
