Mateusz Strzelecki; Andrzej Slazak - Karol Rathaus: Works For Violin And Piano

Karol Rathaus's chamber works for violin and piano, though encompassing just five pieces, constitute an unusually important part of the composer's artistic legacy.The works written between 1925 and 1949 show the composer's entire adult life in cross-section and prove his versatility.

Depending on the circumstances, the composer masterfully makes use of an innovative compositional language but also writes commercial music.

Mateusz Strzelecki and Andrzej Slazak spent many years studying Rathaus's music and present their insightful reading of these rare masterpieces.
