Description
C�sar Franck composed the Sonata in A Major as a wedding gift for violinist Eug�ne Ysa�e in 1886, who gave the first performance on December 16. Evidence suggests, however, that Franck originally envisioned the work for cello, only switching to violin when a gift for Ysa�e was needed. An arrangement for cello by Jules Delsart has long been available, but it simplified certain passages and made some octave adjustments. This edition by cellist Emilio Col�n, with the piano edited by Nariaki Sugiura, offers a cello version more similar to Franck's original intention. Due to its cyclic structure, the themes presented in the first movement are developed throughout the rest of the work.
