Description
Ferenc Farkas (1905-2000) wrote his two sonatinas in 1930-31 for two outstanding violinists of his generation: György Hannover, who died young, and Ede Zathureczky, who was to have a bright career. The composer, who was studying in Rome at the master class of Ottorino Respighi at that time, fills the easy-to-understand works with neoclassical themes, sometimes showing the characteristics of Hungarian folk music. At the same time, he provides performers with the opportunity to display their expressiveness and virtuosity.
