Eugene Ysaye composed his 6 violin sonatas in 1924 in the honour of J. S. Bach and after his wife's death and dedicated to his contemporaries. The second was dedicated to Jacques Thibaud and the performer is Kristof Barati, the second-prize-winner of the International Jacques Thibaud Violin Competition (Paris, 1996). This performance was recorded in Paris, 2002.
this concert was one with the most impressive repertoire, and stunning performance and the audience claps for every piece like it was nothing. appalling.

@Freshmanwave Stunning performance and crystal clear, but yes, too conservative.

Why he wastes his time playing this second rate
stuff is beyond understanding. We are aware he can
play the violin -but to put all that hard work into this
fiddle doodling piece ????

Has Barati recorded Ysaye sonatas? Dying to have his recording of them. And Hahn's.......

susanna yoko henkel has the most natural recording of the les furies in my opinion. i find it more logical than zimmerman, vengerov, kaler, kavakos.. the fantastic recording was available on her homepage but for some reason i can't get past the flash opening right now.

Have a listen to Philippe Graffin's recording of Ysaye's 6 violin sonatas (Hyperion Helios label). I feel there is much more expression in those recordings.

Whoa, easy there boy...
You were not insulted in any way by my question I hope? You have clarified your point, and it's a valid one I think.

I couldn't care less what you think, but if you really want to understand what I meant, listen to somebody like Vengerov and you will see how rubatos here can be much more natural and without changing absolutely the rithm.
