If Franck’s Sonata is today one the most popular French works of the repertoire, Ernest Chausson’s Concert deserves to get more attention. It is therefore a great privilege to be gifted this height of finesse and refinement – an unusual dialogue between a solo violin, a piano and a string quartet – by six born chamber musicians at the summit of their art.
