About
Not only was Robert Fuchs an admired friend of Brahms but he nurtured a prodigious number of pupils, among whom were Enescu, Korngold, Mahler, Wolf, and Sibelius who called Fuchs a clever orchestrator, professional to his fingertips, and very happy as a composer. The three Violin Sonatas, composed over a 24-year period between 1877 and 1901, exemplify Fuchs superbly crafted and melodious grace, with soaring Romanticism spiced with occasional Hungarian colour, folkloric themes and vivacious finales.

[Chung] She plays beautifully throughout the First and Second Sonatas, with a technique that is solid and more than competent for those two works, and showering Fuchs’s melodies with considerable emotional expression.
December 2020
Music such as this needs to be performed with due regard to its textural clarity and expressive poise, which it receives in abundance from Hyejin Chung and Warren Lee – the attentiveness of their music-making well served by the admirably lucid sound.
