About

Bohuslav Martinů wrote music for the cello from the beginning to the end of his creative life…‘One could not,’ wrote Nadia Boulanger ‘become close to Martinů without loving him, so radiant was the purity of his personality. This personality illumines all his music.’ 

[1st sonata]: “Fournier (dedicatee) and the Czech pianist Rudolf Firkušný, a long-time friend and interpreter, gave the first performance 12th May 1940 at the last Sunday concert of the Société de la musique contemporaine, before the Germans marched into Paris.” (A. Phillips)
