The genesis of this recording of Béla Bartók’s Sonata for Solo Violin is a story of filiations: Endre Kleve, Jean-Frédéric Molard’s professor, was himself a student of Andre Gertler’s, a friend of Bartók. Consequently, the interpretation proposed here by the violinist is a mixture of this oral heritage and of personal research on the various editions of the score, enriched by the study of the correspondence between the composer and Yehudi Menuhin, to whom the work is dedicated. Another kind of filiation exists in this recording between the two composers: Bartók, by beginning his Sonata with a ‘Tempo di ciaccona’, creates a parallel with Johann Sebastian Bach’s very famous ‘Chaconne’, the last movement of his monumental Partita No. 2, demonstrating to what degree the German composer influenced the history of writing for solo violin.
