Following an acclaimed performance of Baroque repertoire last season, Isabelle Faust returns with a program that reveals a completely different side of her musical personality. Together with pianist Alexander Melnikov, a close collaborator since the beginning of her international career, she explores three large-scale Romantic sonatas by Johannes Brahms and Robert Schumann in a fascinating juxtaposition with exquisite miniatures by Webern and Kurtág.
