Aside from the Piano
Quartet op. 13 and the
Violin Sonata op. 18, the
Cello Sonata numbers
among the most mature
works of chamber music
from Strauss' early
oeuvre. The influences of
Mendelssohn, Schumann,
and Brahms are
noticeable, while leaving
sufficient space for a
very personal tonal
language, often with
surprising rhythmic and
harmonic turns of phrase.
Strauss subjected the
first version completed
in early 1881 to a
radical revision over the
winter of 1882/83; the
opening movement was
thoroughly reworked, the
two subsequent movements
rewritten completely. It
was worth it, because
after the premiere in
Dresden, the composer
wrote to his mother,
“My sonata garnered
extraordinary acclaim,
the applause was
enormous, congratulations
came to me from all
sides.â€.
