ive melodies in contrasting styles by Russian composer Serge Prokofiev for Violin with Piano accompaniment.
Prokofiev’s later Cello Sonata is closely associated with the name Mstislav Rostropovich. The twenty-year-old cellist impressed the composer so much during a performance in Moscow in 1947 that he impulsively vowed to create a piece suited to his talents. In June 1949, they collaboratively completed the highly challenging duo sonata. It was presented for the first time that same month to the State Committee for Art Affairs. In the printed edition, a rapid concluding section was softened by a simpler option – likely aiding significantly in the spread of the sonata.
