The really surprising thing about this chambermusic partnership, documented here in the form of their recordings of Beethoven's complete output for cello and piano, is that it ever existed at all. The duo formed by the Austrian pianist Friedrich Gulda (born 1930) and the French cellist Pierre Fournier (1906-1986) does not resemble in any way the usual notions of what such a duo might be expected to look like. Furthermore the two musicians were separated by a generation. Any ambiguity in Gulda's remark about Fournier's effect on him is easily cleared up. As he said himself: "He was the more seasoned, and my superior. I owe him a great deal. I learnt a huge amount from him, musically, about taking things seriously, and he guided me, kindly but also very strenuously." Of no other musician does Gulda speak with so much respect, affection and warmth as Pierre Fournier (and his wife Lydia).
At times, at least, the partnership must have had something of a father-son relationship. Gulda, who never loses a chance to cultivate his nonconformism, admits that the Fourniers were the first people to teach him some manners, such as pressing his tailcoat, not shooting his mouth, and shaving before going on the platform. "It's not unimportant for someone as young as that to discover that behaving barbarously is not the only way of getting on in life or on the stage, in other words that one should play with good manners, with refinement." Psychologists may care to ponder whether the range of things in which Fournier acted as mentor has anything to do with the fact that Gulda's father also played the cello, though as an amateur, and was the budding pianist's first duet partner.
These recordings demonstrate with almost too much clarity one of the qualities of Fournier's style as cellist and as musician in general: discretion. Gulda, for his part, alleviates his disadvantage with an uncommonly lucid, analytically enlightened style of playing, without allowing the arcs of thematic tension to slacken. Unlikely as the partnership of Fournier and Gulda may have looked at first glance, therefore, it proved to be an early instance of that embrace of French clarté and German analytic probing which has characterized a whole series of performances in the last three decades.. *Click to activate the English subtitles for the presentation* (00:00-04:00)

Beethoven cello sonatas and Bach's Unacompanied cello suites (by Fournier, of course) are two of my most precious 'digital' possessions. Any analog recording could not have survived my repeated, quite frequent, playing of these two over sixty years. I have the same numbers played by several others, but none matches what Fournier provides to up or soothe my spirit when I am down. Thank you (and others) for sharing precious classical collections on the web. You collectively deserve a Nobel prize.

Yoyo Ma said much the same about Bach’s Cello suite based on feedback from his fans over his career. I am indebted to whoever posted this recording for introducing me to Fournier’s rendition. It’s my new favourite. That said, Rostropovich also doesn’t disappoint.

[@chalinolobusvespertilionid8700]

Yes. As a parallel, there comes to my mind the prominence of the two French brothers Duport (Jean-P. & Jean-L.), at the time of the first of these works being conceived - potentially either having joined Beethoven in presenting the first performances of the two works of Op. 5 ...

[@jeezee0210]

This set is my favorite for cello-piano sonata. I have practically all versions (Fournier-Gulda, Yo-yo Ma-Ax, Casals-Serkin, Harrell-Ashkenazy, Rostropovich-Richter, Du pre-Barenboim, Maisky-Argerich, Perenyi-Schiff, Bylsma-Bilson, Bylsma-Immerseel, Wispelwey-Lazic, Wispelwey-Komen and Phillips-Francois Frederic Guy). Each has its own merit. But I always go back to the Fournier-Gulda recording.

Wittgenstein, the philosopher, whose brother was a great pianist, (Ravel wrote the concerto for the left hand for him after he lost the right one in the war) says that Beethoven and Schubert were the last composers never to have heard the sound of machinery. I think this is important in appreciating their music. Wittgenstein even detects machinery in Brahms... Probably true.

[@Indo49]

From Wikipedia: Pierre Léon Marie Fournier (24 June 1906 - 8 January 1986) was a French cellist. born in Paris, the son of a French Army general. His mother taught him to play the piano, but he had a mild case of polio as a child and lost dexterity in his feet and legs. Having difficulties with the piano pedals, he turned to the cello.
From Wikipedia: Friedrich Gulda (16 May 1930 - 27 January 2000) was an Austrian pianist and composer who worked in both the classical and jazz fields. Born in Vienna the son of a teacher, Gulda began learning to play the piano at age 7 with Felix Pazofsky at the Wiener Volkskonservatorium. In 1942, he entered the Vienna Music Academy, where he studied piano and musical theory under Bruno Seidlhofer and Joseph Marx.

No, Beethoven did. He achieved his work by using his talent and working laboriously. You sound like he just effortless picked some fruits hanging of a tree. This is insulting to the creative genius of mankind.

Brahms piano quintet and Beethoven's 1st cello sonata were the pieces that made me love and begin to explore classical music.

Fournier has a personal but quite classical vision of these duo sonatas - the first important in the music story (forgetting the baroque sonatas for cello). Hear for instance his previous vision with Kempff. On the opposite, Gulda has a rather specific vision of his own. It i amazing to hear haw they find a revisited equilibrium, perfectly clear and convincing, . making a perfect synergy between these two visions. It is what this music asked for, form th 'fisst' (op. 5) to the last (op. 102) periods, ot forgetting the so outstanding 'second style' op. 69. Richter/Rostropovich is quite another story.. There is stylistic choice to be made. It is mainy YOUR sensitivity matter. Don't get any without having heard the two ones !!!!!

I love this team performance and I like the 4th and fifth Beethoven Cello Sonatas the most. But am closer to what Gulda's pupil, Martha Argerich recorded with Misha Maisky. For me it is perhaps the better rendition of these Beethoven works. Maybe this is so because Argerich is the first account I heard of these Sonatas. But of course, what Gulda and Fournier recorded together is impressively good, having the production a very good quality. I would recommend both accounts equally. Maybe the Fournier outlook is a more distant approach than that of Maisky, which always sounded sweeter or more romantic to me. They really compete one with the other and it depends on which are your likings in Classical music. 🎵🎶💎🤗❤️👍

I find Maisky's playing too saccharine.

[@rickartdefoix1298]

@@jeezee0210 Yes. I agree. Maisky is a bit candy sweet in his playing here. Never mind, the result is very good.

Michael Caine can play the cello. Not many people know that.

I believe you can transform these sonatas to piano concertos. Just keep the pianos script and have to work hard using cellos script to change it to orchestra. Demands a lot of work and talent but 70% of the works is already done.
