Tracklist

01. Violin Sonata: I. Langsam, sehr frei und leidenschaftlich
02. Violin Sonata: II. in kräftig-fröhlichem Wanderschritt durchweg sehr lebendig
03. Violin Sonata: III. Zart und anmutig, durchaus ruhig
04. Violin Sonata: IV. Äusserst rasch
05. Violin Sonata: V. Sehr langsame Halbe, mit feierlichem ernstem Ausdruck, doch stets schlicht
06. Fantasy in C Major, Op. 159, D. 934

Violinist William Harvey peforms Arthur Schnabel's Sonata for Solo Violin (1919) and Schubert's Fantasy for Violin and Piano in C major, D.934 together with pianist Frederic Chiu. Schnabels' Sonata for Solo Violin (1919) is a huge work for a sonata, lasting approximately 45 minutes. It is seldom heard, but certainly does not deserve this obscurity.
