Mieczysław Weinberg - Violin Sonata No. 5, Op. 53 (1953)

Mieczysław Weinberg (also Moisey or Moishe Vainberg, Moisey Samuilovich Vaynberg; Russian: Моисей Самуилович Вайнберг; Polish: Mojsze [Mieczysław] Wajnberg; 8 December 1919 – 26 February 1996) was a Polish-born Soviet composer. Ever since a revival concert series in the 2010 Bregenz Festival in Austria, his music has been increasingly described as "some of the most individual and compelling music of the twentieth century". Weinberg's output was extensive, encompassing 26 symphonies, 17 string quartets, nearly 30 sonatas for various instruments, 7 operas, and numerous film scores.

Allegro - andante - allegretto - andante (15:57) Yuri Kalnits, violin and Michael Csányi-Wills, piano Weinberg was a prodigiously prolific composer writing 26 symphonies; seven concertos; 17 string quartets; 28 sonatas for various instruments; seven operas; several ballets; incidental music for 65 films; and a wide range of vocal and choral music including a Requiem – note the film music, which was the bread and butter income for many Soviet composers. After his escapes from the Nazis, first from Poland in 1939 and secondly from Minsk in 1941, he was evacuated to Tashkent. Weinberg had been brought up in his father’s Jewish theatre company so it was inevitable that he would meet the Mikhoels family, headed by the famous Jewish actor Solomon Mikhoels, whose daughter married Weinberg in 1942. Weinberg’s life changed dramatically in 1943 when the score of his First Symphony found its way to Shostakovich, who instantly insisted that Weinberg come to Moscow. This led to a lifelong friendship and as Weinberg wrote: Shostakovich helped me with many things, some of which I am not even aware of myself….I considered myself to be a happy man, because I could show my works to the finest composer of the twentieth century. The two great composers were equal partners musically and there is no doubt the older composer helped Weinberg get his music performed. This sonata was written during 1953, the same year that he was taken to prison at Stalin’s orders. Weinberg dedicated it to his close friend Dmitri Shostakovich. The overall mastery of Weinberg’s Sonata for Violin and Piano No. 5, Op. 53 lies in its subtlety and simplicity. As this analysis has attempted to show, it is a deeply engineered work; the exposition of a seed-motive, its germination into a theme, cyclic recurrences of both the motive and its theme, and that theme’s ultimate transformation bind the movements and sections of the piece together on many levels. And yet the work does not broadcast its structure and engineering as a primary point of focus. Lyrical melodies, virtuosic instrumental passages, and balanced, contrasting sections draw the performer and listener into a narrative that is paradoxically strange and familiar. Considered by Fanning to be “among his most profound and challenging [works] to date,”
