ROUSSEL, A.: Violin Sonatas Nos. 1-2 / String Trio (D. Bowlin, K. Docter, Kouzov, Tony Cho)

Although he is best remembered for his highly regarded stage and orchestral works, Roussel also composed a significant body of masterful yet relatively unknown chamber music. The Romantic early First Violin Sonata is an epic journey of soaring majesty, while the later Second Violin Sonata is dramatic and succinct, sharing its dynamic neo-Classical style with the String Trio, Roussel’s last completed work.
