Brahms: Sonatas for Violin & Piano

Farjot, Johan;
Laurenceau, Genevieve

ZZT 100802

Zig-Zag Territoires recently discovered Geneviève Laurenceau’s talent, brillant violonist, super-solist of the orchestre du capitole de Toulouse, 1er price of Novossibirsk international competition & Grand Prix of the Académie Maurice Ravel. She is partner of ensemble Contraste (Arnaud Thorette & Johan Farjot) with whom we recorded Café 1930 arrangements of tangos in 2009.

Geneviève Laurenceau, prodigy violonist, goes very young to Germany to perfect her violin with the german master Wolfgang Marschner once Konzertmeister of the Dresden Staatskapelle and later with the russian master Zakhar Bron major teacher (Vadim Repin was one of his pupils) and finally comes back to her french roots with Jean Jacques Kantorow.

She waits until 33 years old and a clear maturity to record with Johan Farjot on a Stradivarius violin of 1682, her first solo recording in a major disputed repertoire, highest point of Brahms inspiration and romantic chamber music : the three sonatas for violin and piano
