Description
At the end of the 18th century, the French cellist and composer Jean-Baptiste Bréval wrote not only virtuosic concertos for his instrument, but also more accessible sonatas and duets that remain essential works in the cello pedagogical repertoire. His Sonata in C major, Op. 40 No. 1 opens with impressive chords and offers beginner cellists the opportunity to explore beautiful melodies and master smaller shifts in position.
