Beethoven Spring Sonata for Violin and Piano
In our January BTB, our musicians, violinist Mari Lee accompanied by pianist Kelly Lin, will talk about how Beethoven poised on the threshold of his second-period style. He has still not completely bid farewell to the genteel world of Classicism – graceful themes, transparent textures and traditional accompaniment figures are found in abundance – yet mingling with these attributes we also find robustness and vigor, a boldly independent spirit straining to burst the bonds of classical restraint and moderation.
Beethoven's Violin Spring Sonata is one of the most popular among all of his sonatas. It opens with a flowing theme of spontaneous lyricism and gentle radiance; the freshness and beauty of spring that has earned the sonata its nickname.
*Special thanks to our board member Sophia Joyce Xu for hosting this event and providing light refreshment.
