Music by Beethoven, master of the small and large scale, bookends this programme.
Soaring lyricism and bold contrasts: Beethoven’s Cello Sonata No. 2 offers a glimpse of the young composer pushing the boundaries of form and expression.
Mozart’s Sinfonia Concertante follows, with violinist Alena Baeva and violist Lawrence Power bringing this masterpiece to life.
The evening culminates in Beethoven’s Triple Concerto, a grand work that’s symphonic in scale, yet intimate in spirit. Pianist Alessio Bax, violinist Alena Baeva, and cellist Paul Watkins join Sinfonia Smith Square for this blend of concerto and chamber music.
