Emmanuelle Bertrand and Pascal Amoyel celebrate their twenty years together as a cello and piano duet. It is hardly surprising that they chose to mark this anniversary with the music of Brahms, a composer who has been a constant on their beautiful journey together: beyond his two ultra-romantic sonatas, they take the listeners to an even deeper emotional realm, that of his lieder, splendidly "sung" here by the cello!

"It's rare to find interpretations that marry insight and naturalness, and that sends this recording to very near the top of an imposingly tall heap." Gramophone

"The sonatas are the most impactful offering, with impassioned playing from both." BBC Music
