I first heard about this sonata in Marcel Proust's, "In Search of Lost Time." On page 479 of, "Sodom and Gomorrah," Morel plays this piece with a Schumannesque vibe. I think that Morel and the Baron Charlus were sleeping together. Earlier, maybe in, "The Guermantes Way," the Baron Charlus tried to seduce Proust. They are at the Verdurins place La Raspeliere, which is owned by the Cambremer people. I think that La Raspeliere is just south of Balbec. It's a dinner party, and Morel is the musician. On page 481, Morel plays Debussy's, "Fetes." However, he forgets the notes and breaks into Meyerbeer's, "March." Proust has taught me much. Thanks Proust.
Baron de Charlus didn't try to seduce Proust, but rather Proust's narrator. It would be interesting if a fictional character could seduce its own author.
It's a matter of the phrasing and sweep of the music. Fauré is encouraging a sense of feeling the music in groups of two to a bar, so that--although there is much inner activity with the small notes--the performers never lose sight of conveying the larger sweep of the phrases. Composing it in 4/4 with twice smaller note values may seem like an equivalency, but visually and metrically it conveys something quite distinct.
Non, pas d'accord. Je sens Proust plutôt debussyste; plus dans une atmosphère impressionniste en fines touches nuancées. La musique de Fauré est plus franche, plus directe; surtout dans une oeuvre de jeunesse comme cette sonate, malgré ses subtilités harmoniques.

Oh my God, I was reading that passage precisely before I looked for this piece.
Now I'll start reading Proust!
I just read that excerpt and came here to listen to Faure's sonata...and I found your comment as well! ❤
Não conhecia esta sonata, ouvi-a agora por estar lendo justamente essa passagem n Recherche, em que Morel a toca. Proust nos brinda com Arte.
I wish Fauré had developed the violin melody at 15:24 further. It's such a beautiful thing to hear.
Wished he’d developed it more?! There’s 65 bars dedicated to it. Anymore and it would have overstayed its welcome.
@@e.hutchence-composer8203 It's mostly the piano. Would have liked to hear the violin line more.
wonderful
I like photos at a glance.
Is there a reason, why the first movement is written in alla breve? Why didn't he use 4/4 time and 16th notes?

@@nicholasfox966Makes the pulsebeat different.
3:55 unison in octave
who are the players? The players deserve to be acknowledged for their hard work
@@andrewkennaugh1065 Thank you. it is one of my favorite pieces. Just in case you might enjoy it, ruclips.net/video/ptCogVh3CtM/видео.html
@@andrewkennaugh1065 It was the live broadcast of the International Violin Competition of Indianapolis 1986. Got 4th prize
@@andrewkennaugh1065 thanks
Merci Proust

It should be Sonata for violin and piano.
Is it
Whenever a sonata is for an instrument and the keyboard, the latter is implied. Kinda a bummer when the piano part is harder.
14:33, middle staff... uh, that key signature doesn't look right
Not a fan of E-Sharp?
The violinist sounds like Arthur Grumiaux.
Wow it's real
