Lowell Liebermann: Cello Sonatas (Dmitri Atapine & Adela Hyeyeon Park)

1. Sonata No. 1 for Cello and Piano, Op. 3 (1978) 

2. Sonata No. 2 for Cello and Piano, Op. 61 (1998) 

3. Album Leaf, Op. 66 (1999)    

4. Sonata No. 3 for Cello and Piano (“Sonata Semplice”), Op. 90 (2005)

5. Sonata No. 4 for Cello and Piano, Op. 108 (2008)           

This is the first recording of complete cello and piano music by Lowell Liebermann, one of America's most frequently performed and recorded composers. His four Sonatas for Cello and Piano are a remarkable journey of discovery, change, development, and understanding. Critically acclaimed cello-piano duo of Dmitri Atapine and Adela Hyeyeon Park had an honor and the privilege to work closely with the composer before recording the CD, and the result is a stunning tour de force of emotionally charged and technically dazzling performances of some of the most fascinating and exciting works for cello and piano of 20th and 21st centuries.
