Edvard Grieg wrote a cello sonata for his brother, John. Though he never played it in public with his brother, he did play it with a young Pablo Casals. Neither one of them are playing on this week’s podcast, but cellist Sergey Antonov and pianist Ilya Kazantsev are. You can watch them play, too, on our youtube page, here.
