Ruth Leon recommends… Stephen Isserlis – Fauré Chamber Music Masterclass

Fauré Chamber Music Masterclass

Click here to watch

One of the treats I have allowed myself this week is to watch a Fauré Master Class given at Wigmore Hall by Cellist Stephen Isserlis  with some young musicians (Trio Venere, Chaos String Quartet and others).

​His love for Fauré shines through every comment and note and it is noticeable that these young professional chamber music players lap up every correction and adjust their playing accordingly.

The works they are tackling are:
Piano Trio in D minor Op. 120
Violin Sonata No. 2 in E minor Op. 108
Cello Sonata No. 1 in D minor Op. 109
String Quartet in E minor Op. 121
