The repertoire for two unaccompanied stringed instruments has never been very large, although the combination has exercised the minds of many composers over the centuries, whether the result – excepting double-basses - has been music for two violins, for violin and viola, for two violas, for viola and cello, for two cellos or – as in the music on this album – for violin and cello. Of those six combinations, it is the first and last which have tended to produce the most significant compositions – always excepting Mozart’s Duos K 423 and 424, for violin and viola – and in the case of the combination of violin and cello this ought not to appear so surprising.
