G. Henle Verlag Gabriel Faure - Elegie for Violoncello and Piano, Op. 24 Henle Music by Faure Edited by Monnier

Composed in 1880, Élégie was intended to be the slow movement for a sonata. Fauré gave up the sonata project and published the piece individually. It was so successful that Fauré was urged by the publisher to write further pieces.
