Programme
Overview
Experience the power of Beethoven’s early and late masterpieces in one unforgettable evening as cellist Pieter Wispelwey and pianist Piers Lane bring his soulful G minor Cello Sonata and heroic Variations on “See the conqu’ring hero comes” to life, alongside a majestic C major sonata and playful Mozart-inspired variations.Join cellist Pieter Wispelwey and pianist Piers Lane for an evening of transcendent artistry and historical resonance. The programme opens with the grand Sonata in C major, composed in 1815 for virtuoso Joseph Linke, its noble themes and sweeping melodies setting the stage for Beethoven’s earlier, more fiery creations. Fresh from his 1796 meeting with the Prussian king’s principal cellist in Berlin, he penned the impassioned Cello Sonata in G minor and the bold Twelve Variations on “See the conqu’ring hero comes.” The concert concludes with two delightful sets of variations on beloved motifs from Mozart’s Die Zauberflöte, blending wit and virtuosity in a sparkling finale. Immerse yourself in the dialogue between composer and performers, where historical inspiration and modern mastery converge.
