SCOTT, C.: Violin Sonatas Nos. 1 and 3 /
Sonata Melodica (Howick, Rahman)

Works for violin and piano are an important part of Cyril Scott’s chamber music. This disc presents three sonatas which span his output. The capricious and ruminative First Violin Sonata ranks among the most convincing and successful of his earlier large-scale compositions. Sonata Melodica is a more relaxed yet equally quixotic work, while the Third Violin Sonata is one of the most inventive from his later years. A selection of Scott’s orchestral music is available on Marco Polo 8.223485.
