Immediately following his second Violin Sonata op. 108, Fauré undertook, in the spring of 1917, to work on a sonata for cello and piano, realizing a long-standing project. In terms of realization as artistic gesture, the two works are closely related to each other. In the Cello Sonata, too, a slow and dramatic initial movement follows a slow, calm and relaxed central movement, followed by a graceful finale. The echo of the first executions was reserved, but thanks to the growing interest in all of Fauré's late chamber music, this sonata was recently rediscovered as an important part of his work. Thanks to the Henle urtext edition, here we are now in the presence of the first critical edition of the work. David Geringas, master in the field, took care of the indications of the cello part.
