DESCRIPTION:Programme:\n\nEmmanuel R﻿hene-Baton: Sonata for Cello and Pi
 ano\n\nGabriel Faure: Sonata for Cello and Piano No.2\n\nInterval\n\nEthan
  Mitchell: Two Sketches for Cello and Piano\n\nJohannes Brahms: Sonata for
  Cello and Piano in F Major\n\nStefan Rogers and Ethan Mitchell began work
 ing together whilst studying at the Royal Northern College of Music in 201
 9. Together they have performed in various recitals as well as the RNCM's 
 Barbirolli Cello Prize in which they performed Alfredo Casella's Sonata fo
 r Cello and Piano No.2. They share a common interest in obscure music and 
 are very excited to be starting the recital with an incredible\, and yet a
 lmost unknown sonata by Emmanuel Rhene-Baton. The sonata clearly takes aft
 er the impressionist music of Debussy and Ravel\, as well as having a hint
  of folk music from Normandy weaved into the two outer movements. Despite 
 being written in the same year\, and in the same city the Rhene-Baton sona
 ta differs greatly from the late Cello Sonata No.2 by Gabriel Faure. Despi
 te its highly romantic character\, Faure's sonata has rather unexpected or
 igins as a funeral march for the 100th anniversary of Napoleon's Death. Th
 is can only really be heard in the second movement which shares similariti
 es to Faure's famous Elegie for Cello and Piano (1880) that interestingly 
 was originally intended as the slow movement of a different sonata that wa
 s never completed.\n\n﻿ The second half begins with a work by Ethan Mitc
 hell. Two Sketches for Cello and Piano was completed while Ethan was study
 ing at Chetham's School of Music and is formed of two serine movements tit
 led: Morning Walk and Lilac Lake. Both movements share Neoromantic influen
 ces as well those of impressionism which contrasts impressively with the f
 inal piece of the recital\, Brahms' F major Sonata. The F major Sonata is 
 a flamboyant work formed of four movements. Whilst having a firm hold on t
 he Romantic traditions\, the sonata is highly progressive both rhythmicall
 y and harmonically in a way that can be appreciated differently every time
  you listen to it.
