Now playing in this video: 🎵 Schumann: "Sonata in A minor, Op. 105"

Bilal Alnemr brings restless intensity and lyrical depth to Schumann's Violin "Sonata in A minor", Op. 105, a work born from one of the composer's most turbulent creative periods. Passionate and introspective by turns, the sonata channels dark undercurrents into music of urgent, searching beauty.
