The first album by Sara Chenal and Jean-Pierre Ferey was devoted to French women composers (Violon au féminin, Skarbo, 2015); it gave a prominent place to relatively short-form genre pieces from the 19th and 20th centuries. For this new recording, they wanted to retain the same spirit of discovery that animated that first project, while exploring more developed and also more contemporary forms of the French repertoire.
Looking at the repertoire of sonatas written for the violin, the first name they agreed on was Francis Poulenc. His modernity, though rooted in tradition, is undoubtedly more apparent today than it was thirty years ago. Yet his Sonata for violin and piano has been relatively little performed until recently. This is no doubt due to the difficulty of performing it.
