De Lhoyer's biography spans Europe, from his birth in France to his years in Russia and back again. It was during his connections with the Russian imperial court that he wrote his Three Sonatas, although the exact date is uncertain, for the five-string guitar and violin.

Editor Ophee provides an excellent overview of the composer and work, along with notes for both parts. He notes the use of the Italian two-movement sonata form, in which each opening leads to a "more lively second movement."

A Set of parts is available separately. (EICM-25).
