Boccherini Complete Cello Sonatas

Componist: Luigi Boccherini Artist: Luigi Puxeddu A much-underrated composer, Luigi Boccherini (1743-1805) was one of the leading composers of the late 18th century, a friend and colleague of both Haydn and Mozart, and a formidable cello virtuoso. His reputation was such that he was nicknamed ‘Mrs Haydn’ – not in a pejorative sense, the appellation was due to his music sounding Haydnesque, but with a sensual, feminine grace rather than the Sturm und Drang of his Austrian friend’s music. Boccherini’s prodigious talent as a cellist is apparent in the virtuosic cello sonatas, which call for an array of dazzling instrumental techniques. Cellist Luigi Puxeddu has recorded all of these sonatas, featured on this set.

Start The Week With Music

Last night was Beethoven night - well, Beethoven cello sonatas night. Well, the night when I suddenly felt an urge to compare recordings.

I do that often, because a) you get to be in the presence of great artists, and b) you learn a lot about great music. Every time you think you know a piece inside out, people come along and show you bits you've never heard before.

So of all the sets I listened to (none in full, there are only so many hours in a Sunday night), here's the one that had me smile almost throughout. It's brisk and spontaneous, witty, totally devoid of awe and reverence (while steeped in respect and love), and there are moments so tongue-in-cheek that it makes me giggle like a child.

Here then is Beethoven's third Cello Sonata in A major, op 69, played in 1972 (EMI PM 617, remastered 1988) by cellist Paul Tortelier and Eric Heidsieck, piano. Trust two Frenchmen to turn Beethoven the Titan into Ludwig the Imp :-)
