Ferdinand Ries (1784‐1838) was born in Bonn and moved to Vienna in 1801, where his life became closely related to that of Ludwig van Beethoven (also a native of Bonn..). Ries studied piano with him, copied his scores and was the interpreter of several new works, notably the premiere of the Third Piano Concerto. Ries also wrote the first biography of Beethoven, an invaluable source of first‐hand information.
Ries’s style inevitably is modelled on that of his master Beethoven, he was however strong enough to stand on his own. His three cello sonatas are masterworks of the genre, both instruments being equal partners in a highly virtuoso musical discourse.
Played on period instruments by Gaetano Nasillo, one of today’s most renowned baroque cellists, and Alessandro Comellato, excellent fortepianist, who recorded Hummel Piano Concertos to great critical acclaim for Brilliant Classics (BC 94338).
