Following the breakout success of Brady’s 100 Guitars at the Brisbane Festival in Australia this past September, the Montreal composer/guitarist has released an ambitious new double CD of solo electric guitar music on People Places Records.

Ludwig van Beethoven: Cello Sonatas Op. 5, Nos. 1 & 2
Keiran Campbell, cello; Sezi Seskir, fortepiano
SSKC2025
Release: Oct. 31, 2025
Keiran Campbell and Sezi Seskir bring a revelatory freshness to Beethoven’s Cello Sonatas, Op. 5. Performed on period instruments, their interpretation highlights Beethoven’s bold reimagining of the cello-piano partnership, where dialogue replaces dominance. The fortepiano’s straight-strung clarity and leather hammers lend transparency and bite, while the gut-strung cello, played with a supple classical bow, offers warmth and rhetorical nuance. Together, they recapture the sonatas’ original vitality, at once earthy, articulate, and strikingly modern.
