Description
Violinist Magnus Boye Hansen and pianist Mathias Halvorsen explore the violin sonatas of Christian Sinding in this new release from LAWO Classics. For much of his life Christian Sinding (1856-1941) was a prominent figure in the Norwegian cultural landscape. He worked as a composer for more than 50 years through a time of societal and political upheaval.
Seemingly uninterested in the plethora of avant-garde movements materialising in the music world around him, Sinding crafted his own musical style: both his fascination with baroque and early music, and his own Norwegian heritage can be heard in these sonatas.
