On November 15, Pentatone’s physical and digital release of Alisa’s new recording with her regular collaborator, Israeli pianist Inon Barnatan, with whom she shares “a dazzling technique and a level of communication and expression so clear that they can practically finish each other’s phrases” (Boston Classical Review).

An all-Brahms collection, the new album captures their accounts of the German composer’s two sonatas for cello, as well as their own arrangement for cello of his First Violin Sonata. On the heels of the new release, Alisa rejoins Barnatan for live duo recitals of Brahms and Shostakovich at Stanford University’s Bing Concerto Hall (Nov 20) and in Boston’s Celebrity Series (Nov 24).

BRAHMS: Sonata for Cello and Piano in D (arr. from Violin Sonata by Weilerstein & Barnatan)
SHOSTAKOVICH: Sonata for Cello and Piano in D minor
