Martinu: Sonata for Flute and Piano. In 1945, while in exile during the German occupation of Czechoslovakia, Martinu composed his Flute Sonata, in which the virtues of his distinct musical language are plain to hear - lyrical lines, a rhythmic drive which is both energetic and lively and an effective use of tone colour.
With Sharon Bezaly, flute and Ronald Brautigam, piano.
