Description:
The one-movement sonata for horn and piano op. 2 by Miloslav Kabelác (1908-1979), which lasts around twelve minutes, is characterized by a high concentration of musical ideas and great expressiveness. The composer explores the dramatic and virtuoso potential of the horn, but also places considerable demands on the pianist. The sonata was composed in 1935 and 1936, and three months after a live broadcast on the radio, the work was premiered by the same performers - horn player Josef Schwarz and pianist Berta Kabelácová-Rixová - in a concert at the Smetana Museum in Prague on January 28, 1938.
The rediscovery of the forgotten and never published horn sonata is thanks to the pianist Robert Kolinsky and the principal horn of the Berliner Philharmoniker Stefan Dohr, who recorded the work on the CD "Miloslav Kabelác: Complete Chamber Music" (Capriccio 2024).
Based on the autograph score and solo part, which are kept in the National Museum - Czech Music Museum in Prague, the sonata is published here for the first time in print - as part of the Critical Complete Edition of the works of Miloslav Kabelác.
