Sonate pour piano et violon (1892/93) I. Très modéré [0:00] II. Très lent [13:08] III. Très animé [24:17] A violin sonata by the much too short-lived Belgian composer Guillaume Lekeu (1870-1894), a gorgeous work full of vitality and passion. Before Lekeu died of typhoid fever at age 24, he had been a talented student of César Franck and Vincent d'Indy, and echoes of Franck's voice can be heard at times in this sonata. The famous Belgian virtuoso violinist Eugène Ysaÿe commissioned this work from the young composer and premiered it in 1893. Violin: David Lefèvre Piano: Alain Lefèvre
