Georg Goltermann wrote two Grand Duos, opp.15 and 25. This episode features Op.15 in D minor. All three movements are presented and talked about. This is a long talk about why I feel that Goltermann's music is worth your time. The melody is well constructed, the harmony is more interesting. It speaks to me on a deeper level. 

Goltermann's influence on my affinity to Forgotten Cello Music when I was still a young student. When I started learning his Concerto No. 4 in G major it left a mark on my memory. Then his Nocturnes and Sechs Tonbilder later on confirmed what I had always felt. That this was convincingly worthy of the studio where students could learn the art of structure and harmony on a smaller scale before being introduced to the "Greats". 

This is my take on this music. My apologies for the rather bad playing, particularly of the Grand Duo. My cello has been suffering and is slowly being reduced to box of worthless junk. Hopefully, one day, it will return to the environment that it was created in, thus revitalizing its voice and character. Crossing my fingers and planning for that glorious day.
