About This Song
About "Violin Sonata No. 2, Op. 102: I. Poco allegro più tosto moderato" by Annie D'Arco
D'Arco opens Saint-Saëns's Second Sonata with a 'poco allegro' that feels like a brisk walk through a gallery of shifting moods. The violin's line is restless, probing, never settling into easy comfort. There's a classical poise, but the undercurrent is one of quiet turbulence, a mind that cannot stop questioning.
