Francesca Dego and Francesca Leonardi’s final volume of the Complete Violin Sonatas by Beethoven, featuring Nos.6, 7 and 10, was released in October 2015. Dego and her duo partner Leonardi have been playing together for over 11 years, and Beethoven’s sonatas have always been an important part of their repertoire.
