Filling only two CDs, the complete works for cello and piano are quintessential and vintage Beethoven. Timora Rosler and Klara Wurtz have played together for more than 15 years, having won several chamber music prizes. They performed the Beethoven cycle several times in concert over the years, and their interpretation has ripened to such an extent that the time came to record it. Every note is alive and vibrant, played with gusto and feeling, alternating melancholy and joy, sadness and sheer fun. Recorded January 19-23, 2013, at Sala congressi del Parco naturalistico di Onara in Padua, Italy.
