Brahms composed his second cello sonata in 1886, twenty years after the first. It is a more substantial and dramatic work, especially with the declamatory opening to the first movment. The second movement makes extensive use of pizzicato in the cello, the third movement is a furious duet between the two instruments, while the sonata finishes with a breezy and effective fourth movement.
