Isabelle Faust and Alexander Melnikov

Isabelle Faust and Alexander Melnikov are two soloists who share a long standing chamber music partnership with each other. Not only do they perform as a duo, but they regularly form more extended chamber music ensembles with artists such as Jean Guihen Queyras, Antoine Tamestit, Anne Katherina Schreiber and many others. Faust and Melnikov have made an impressive collection of recordings together for Harmonia Mundi, among others presenting all Beethoven Sonatas, the Schubert Sonatas and all Brahms.
