Grumiaux’s elevated intellectual profile is put to exalted use in the Debussy Sonata. He has a quicksilver response to the music’s twists and turns and an alertness to the necessary momentum in the first movement. He is thus forward moving but flexible with a fast vibrato and multi variegated tonal response at once apposite and unostentatious. Listen at 2.15 to about as extravagant a portamento as he ever made on disc. If you want to hear fluent and incisive duo playing listen to Grumiaux and Hajdu in the Intermède where understanding of motivic details and larger structure reigns supreme. So too in the finale; just the right weight of bow pressure from the violinist at 1.40 and the optimum fluidity and fluency from the pianist. A noble account of a masterpiece.

Time is right for a reappraisal of the Gendron-Francaix partnership, in my view every bit as exalted an instrumentalist-composer duo as the better known and more fêted Rostropovich-Britten. I recently reviewed a performance of the Debussy Cello Sonata by a celebrated contemporary duo so narcissistic as to be painful. Here, at a somewhat steadier tempo, but not by much, Gendron and Francaix show how inflection, nuance, tonal variety and cogency bring rewards far outstripping the mere superficialities of the moment. There is such expressive propriety to their playing. In the pizzicato episode of the Serenade’s opening everything is at the service of the music and the gradations of tone in the subsequent development are of sovereign subtlety. And such wit – real wit, not supposed Gallic "wit" – in the slides and phrase endings, such triumphant understanding of the work’s architecture and meaning, such involved nonchalance. In the finale their sense of anticipation and release is second to none. There is never any vulgar overemphasis in tempo relation. Gendron’s tone colours here are infinitely attractive and subtle and the whole performance a triumph of selfless musicality.
