He did compose a few pieces for string instruments when he was young ; two pieces for cello and piano Op.2, two pieces for violin and piano Op.6, the Trio Elegaique Op.9 and one of his finest chamber music works, the Sonata for cello and piano Op.19. This work I have always loved and found that the 3rd movement (Andante) sounded very well on violin.
