The F major ’cello/piano Strauss sonata belongs to his youth and, together with the Eb violin sonata of a few years later, is a manifestation of adolescent high spirits. (For this reason it was high time we committed this to disc sooner rather than later.) His father Franz was a horn player in the Munich Opera Orchestra and his mother was an heiress of a famous brewing family so it was through his father he grew up steeped in the prevailing musical atmosphere. Franz Strauss was a musical conservative and this, perhaps, is why his son’s early works adhere so strongly to classical compositional procedure. Despite the obvious influences of Mendelssohn, and especially Brahms, there is nonetheless an individual voice from the outset characterized by a fleetness of touch and sense of the theatrical which pre-echo his astonishing achievements in the field of Opera. |
