An all-Beethoven program commemorating the 200th anniversary of his death
Ludwig van Beethoven:
Violin Sonata No. 2 in A Major, Op. 12 No. 2 (1798)
Cello Sonata No. 4 in C Major, Op. 102 No. 1 (1815)
String Quartet No. 13 in B-flat Major, Op. 130 (1826)
Emma Powell, violin
EmmaLee Holmes-Hicks, violin
Anna Griffis, viola
Leo Eguchi, cello
Janice Weber, piano
This program spotlights three gems from the immense and precious treasury Beethoven left to posterity. An early, sparkling violin and piano sonata, dedicated to Antonio Salieri, twines lyricism and humor in delightful dialogue. A late cello and piano sonata breaks new ground in structure and virtuosity while maintaining a preternatural simplicity. Beethoven’s visionary Op. 130 quartet, a work that has mesmerized players, composers, poets, and listeners for two hundred years, closes the program on a note of transcendent awe and appreciation for this genius unique in history.
