Abstract
Cellists have cause to be thankful for the impracticality and swift demise of the arpeggione as it allowed the appropriation of Schubert's wonderful sonata for their own instrument. Denes Varjon's 1851 Erard piano lends characterful zest to this program of works by Schubert and Chopin which include two of Steven Isserlis's own transcriptions.
