It was Antje Weithaas’s idea to record the six solo sonatas and partitas by Johann Sebastian Bach and Eugène Ysaÿe together. “The Bach works are reasonably well known,” she says. “But Ysaÿe’s? He is always placed in the virtuoso corner, but he is a composer to be taken seriously” In the second album of her trilogy, Antje Weithaas walks a path from darkness to light. Bach’s A minor Sonata is a passion without words, followed by the dramatic third violin sonata by Ysaÿe. The first movement of Ysaÿe’s fifth sonata is “L’aurore” (“Sunrise”), and the program ends with Bach’s third Partita, a clear, positive musical statement in E major.

Martin Helmchen, Marie-Elisabeth Hecker & Antje Weithaas – Schubert: Arpeggione Sonata & Trio No. 2 (2017)

Following a first recording on Alpha devoted to Brahms which garnered much praise – ‘real duo playing’ said Gramophone, while Classica discerned ‘shared music making . . . a world full of nuances and subtlety, boundless sonic imagination (Marie-Elisabeth Hecker), playing of rare intelligence (Martin Helmchen)’ and awarded the disc a ‘Choc’ – the duo is reunited. Its new programme features two summits of chamber music: Schubert’s famous Arpeggione Sonata – named after a now obsolete instrument that was a cross between the guitar and the cello – and his no less celebrated Trio no.2 D929, which achieved even greater popularity thanks to Stanley Kubrick’s film Barry Lyndon. In the latter, the duo is joined by an eminent musician with whom they enjoy playing, Antje Weithaas, ‘one of the great violinists of our time’ (Fonoforum) and also one of the teachers most sought after by the young generation. For example, she taught Tobias Feldmann, the young violinist recently signed by Alpha.

With Antje Weithaas and Dénes Várjon, two instrumentalists are at work who deliver a spirited result above all through their inspiring musicality and absolutely precise and highly concentrated playing. Both artists are known and toured worldwide as unique chamber musicians. In Vol. I of the planned complete recording, they have decided not to follow chronology, but rather – even more delightfully and diversely – to seek contrast. Here the compositional developments can be marveled at even more strikingly. Volume 1 circles with Op. 12 / 2, Op. 23 and Op. 47 tonally around the spectrum of A major and A minor.

“Admittedly, it is quite exceptional for an orchestra and a soloist to record the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto without a conductor. Some members of Camerata Bern were less worried about this project; others – including myself – had their misgivings at first.

This is a Première – for Antje Weithaas. Her first orchestral recording with two of the “big” solo concertos. And obviously also the realization of one of her top dreams and wishes; the combination of her two favourite concertos. At the time of the recording (2012) Steven Sloane was still Music Director of the Stavanger Sympfoniorkester.
As far as Weithaas is concerned, both of these concertos are “celestial music, difficult to describe in words. This music allows us to delve so deeply into the composer’s soul.” She pauses for a moment: “Also into mine.” (Excerpt from the booklet’s liner notes by Cornelia de Reese)

‘….We tackled the challenge of performing and recording without a conductor. Of course, when I otherwise perform this concerto with a conductor, I intensely learn and think through the orchestra part in my head. It is a challenge I am aware of, and I thus probably would never have had dared to perform this concerto without a conductor. But since I’ve often performed the Beethoven Concerto with the Camerata Bern without a conductor, I started thinking that the Brahms Concerto just might work as well. Over the past 7-9 years we have become so well-acquainted with one another on a musical and personal level that by now we manage to communicate with blindfolds on. I probably would not have dared to embark on this adventure with any other ensemble. The most important thing is that each musician should remain in a “chamber music” attitude while providing the necessary symphonic energy and assuming his/her share of responsibility…. ‘ from the liner notes by Antje Weithaas.

Antje Weithaas launches her trilogy of solo violin albums with the first work in each cycle. It was Antje Weithaas’s own idea to jointly record Johann Sebastian Bach’s six sonatas and partitas for solo violin in conjunction with Eugène Ysaÿe’s six solo violin sonatas. “The works by Bach are rather well-known”, she remarks. “But Ysaÿe is invariably shoved into the virtuoso corner, but as a composer he is to be taken quite seriously!”.

Eugène Ysaÿe sketched out his six sonatas for solo violin in just 24 hours, after hearing a concert by the violinist Joseph Szigeti in which the latter played the G Minor Sonata BMV 1001 by Johann Sebastian Bach. The 65-year-old Ysaÿe dedicated each of his op. 27 sonatas to a different violinist – he portrayed their characters in the sonatas, but also showed whom he ideally wanted as interpreter for each work. Except for Manuel Quiroga, whose health was very poor, all of the other five virtuosos played the sonata dedicated to them.
