SYMPHONIC LUNCH VIII: MOZART AND BEETHOVEN
Ludwig van Beethoven
Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 61. First movement
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Symphony No. 29 in A major, KV 201/186a
MARIA WŁOSZCZOWSKA violin, ERSO
In April, Polish violinist Maria Włoszczowska will perform with ERSO. Her versatility as a musician includes performances as a soloist, a concertmaster, and a chamber musician. The programme includes Ludwig van Beethoven’s Violin Concerto’s first movement. This concerto is the first monumental work in this genre, which paved the way for subsequent Romantic violin concertos. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is represented with his Symphony No. 29. This piece, created when the composer was only 18, is one of the most remarkable among his early works, attesting to his compositional mastery.
