Anastasia Injushina piano, Jian Wang cello
Edvard Grieg (1843--1907) usually gave the traditional musical forms a wide birth, seeking to express himself in lyrical images and with rhapsodic freedom. The Cello Sonata of 1883 was commissioned by the Leipzig music publisher Peters, but Grieg found more personal motivation by dedicating it to his cellist brother John. The premiere performance was given by John's teacher, the famous cellist and composer Julius Klengel, with Edvard at the keyboard.
Along with the Piano Concerto and the third Violin Sonata, the Cello Sonata is one of Grieg's most full-blooded works. Yet instead of classical balance, Grieg aimed at seething emotional expression -- passions reflected in both extremes of tempo and radiant, singing themes and folk song motifs.

3. - Allegro molto e marcato: 15:50
One of the most beautiful sonatas in the cello repertoire. Performed with sensitivity and musicianship. Bravo!
Such intensity! Grieg, the cellist Jian Wang, the pianist Anastasia Injushine; the audience was motionless and the concert hall other-worldly. Good to know there is such a world out there.
wonderful recording by J Wang
What a wonderful harmony between the two instruments!
The grace of the pianist and the power of the cellist...perfect combination!
Full of passions and power!!! Bravo!!!
This is an extraordinary composition that is superbly crafted by the performers. Both are first class. .

I have listened to this great music several times since June and it sounds better each time ! Thank you for uploading this gem !!!
Andante has even some jazzy touch. Some old-school smooth kind. lovely piece!
Beautiful sonata and impressive rendition. Love the rich spectrum of the tone produced by the cellist and pianist which is beyond that of the hair appears on the stage.
Awesome - so beautiful, great performance! super venue.
I admit that both artist are new to me .... But this is world class play ... Many thanks """
This place is Temppeliaukion kirkko in Helsinki, Evanc.Lutheran Church.
His play is hauntingly beautiful that makes everyone speechless.
Everything is so elegant about this video. Thanks!
Stunning!
his music is all the Grieg it can possibly be. So Grieg. Like Dvořák, I’ve yet to hear something by Grieg that I didn’t enjoy, effortlessly enjoy.
What a beautiful piece played by two amazing artists ! I really enjoyed the audio as well, great clarity and depth
Well done, and what a venue!!
Wow. Great piece. Excellent performance.
Wonderful performance
Incredible performance! Highly underappreciated work.
Que beleza de expressão!
¡Que versión tan hermosa!
Marvelous!
A great interpretation from two great musicians:) How warmly the cello sounds!
Hi Jian! Glad to hear you play this! Very beautifully, may I add ! Thank you for making the Frescobaldi, Monn album - I was so glad to find it as a DGG recording after we'd talked about those selections ! Thanks for putting those, including the Couperin, together on your album. I look forward to crossing paths again in the future~. You should come to Baton Rouge - LSU, or play for the LPO in New Orleans. I'll bring up your name! Carol - from the days of Rutgers!
Super! Schön! 王健老师真的很棒！

I love how the celloist playing, it's so powerful.
LIke the music and the performance, and love the cavern auditorium. I wonder what the acoustics are like for the audience - the recording is excellent.. Where is it? Oh, I've checked below, i thought it might some rocky part of Finland. Indeed, it's the famous church in Helsinki.

Hello there. What a superb performance. I love the way Jian Wang played this piece with that intensity and he played with such clarity, as well as the emotional flow. This performance really inspires me, since currently I'm working on this sonata as well.
To whom it may concern, I have one question regarding the coda in the first movement, right before Prestissimo. He played the sixtuplets with double stops which might not make it sound sixtuplets. Is there any musical judgment to that interpretation? Thanks.
great

+carlosocarnero yes
Paradoxalement c'est avec Jian Wang que l'accent scandinave de la musique est mis en exergue

Is the sound we are hearing his breathing? (seems like an aspiring sound every few seconds...)
If you hear a kind of "fffffff" it's the wood of the bow touching the strings
Especially in the beginning
But we can hear also hear his breathing
Not a great recording. Cello is buried in the mix
Just wonderful
