Swann and Odette's Little Phrase
A terrific post by Blair Sanderson sleuthing the real-life identity of the fictional Vinteuil’s Sonata from Marcel Proust’s Swann’s Way.
Since it’s at All Music Guide, there are also streaming samples of some of the contenders, including Gabriel Faur ___SIMPLE_HTML_DOM__VOKU__AMP____#8217;s Violin Sonata No. 1 in A major, Op. 13, César Francks Violin Sonata in A major, M. 8, Claude Debussys Violin Sonata, L. 140, and Sanderson’s most likely candidate, Camille Saint-Saëns Violin Sonata No. 1 in D minor, Op. 75.
