Description
Grieg's Third Violin Sonata stands among the finest chamber works of the late 19th century, rivaling the sonatas of Brahms and Franck. The sonata's renown is evident in its appearance in Thomas Mann's novel "Doktor Faustus." Since its initial publication, the work has steadily grown in popularity and now warrants an authoritative urtext edition from Henle. A preface and detailed editorial notes will provide valuable historical context on the sonata's source tradition.
