James Ehnes and long-time musical partner Andrew Armstrong bring special insight to these works that only many years of performing together can convey. The Franck, one of the finest violin sonatas ever written, finds the composer at the height of his powers. The Strauss is the work of a young man on the cusp of finding his musical voice. The program is completed by the inventive Allegretto from the final years of Strauss's career and transcriptions of three of his most popular songs.
