Bohuslav Martinů's Duo No. 2 for Violin and Cello, composed in 1958, is a concise yet expressive chamber work that encapsulates the composer's mature style. This is a lively, lyrical piece that packs charm and energy into three short movements. With its bright rhythms, folk-inspired melodies, and playful back-and-forth between the instruments, it is a spirited musical conversation. The work blends classical form with modern flair, giving both players a chance to shine.
