The Sonata No. 2 in G minor, Op. 117, is the second of the two cello sonatas by Gabriel Fauré.
In early 1921 Fauré had been commissioned by the French government to write a funeral march for a ceremony to be held on 5 May at Les Invalides to mark the 100th anniversary of the death of Napoleon. The sombre theme he composed for it remained in his mind and, as he said, "turned itself into a sonata". By then the composer was frail, and his ill health delayed the completion of the outer movements until late in the year. On 10 November Fauré wrote to his friend and benefactor Charles Martin Loeffler asking him to accept the dedication of the cello sonata, which he had completed that same day.
The work was premiered on 13 May 1922 at a concert of the Société Nationale de Musique, by the cellist Gérard Hekking and the pianist Alfred Cortot, who had been the performers at the premiere of Fauré's First Cello Sonata five years earlier.
About its structure, the work has three movements:
1. Allegro
2. Andante
3. Finale—Allegro vivo
Performers:
Andreas Brantelid (Cello)
Bengt Forsberg (Piano)
