Fuga: Violin Sonatas Nos. 1-3

Sandro Fuga inherited a passion for art and music from a family line which includes the composer Luigi Nono. +He felt himself part of a long tradition, seeing music as the expression of emotions and refusing to join in with avant-garde “musical clownery”. +The First Sonata is unusual in form, its dramatic, agitated central movement flanked by slow movements of great emotional intensity. +The Second Sonata is more elegiac, though not without virtuoso dialogue and a spectacular conclusion. +By turns melancholy and strikingly luminous, the Third Sonata is filled with genuinely moving impressionistic meditations.
