This is truly a compilation of American Masters. Exploring the chamber music of 4 of Americas most noteworthy. In this 90th birthday year of Mr. Carter, these formidable performances of the Cello Sonata and the Piano Sonata by no less than Bernard Greenhouse and Beveridge Webster are considered by many the definitive performances. Rounding out the program are works by David Del Tredici, together with works by the brilliant pianist/composer Robert Helps and one of America’s most substantial but overlooked composers, Vincent Persichetti.
