BRAHMS, J.: Violin Sonatas Nos. 1-3 (Tomoko Mayeda)
The fact that an accomplished violinist can also play the piano with equal virtuosity and artistic perfection suggests an extraordinary musical talent. Tomoko Mayeda’s recording of Mozart’s late Viennese violin sonatas reveals that this is true in her case. On this album, the Japanese artist uniquely presents the three violin sonatas by Johannes Brahms by first recording the entire piano part and then adding the violin part in a second recording session. Brahms described his violin sonatas as ‘Sonatas for Piano and Violin’, acknowledging the difficulty and prominent position of the piano part, as he was an extremely virtuoso pianist himself. With this release, Tomoko Mayeda once again demonstrates her extraordinary dual talent.
