In The Beginning There Was Light

Description

We open this year’s festival with music that radiates brightness and captures the feeling of excitement and anticipation before embarking on a new adventure. The first half begins with Franz Schubert’s Trio No. 1—an adventurous and heroic work full of storytelling spirit. This is followed by a shorter piece by the French composer Germaine Tailleferre, offering a refreshing contrast, like a musical palate cleanser. The journey then continues into the second half, where we are invited into the endlessly beautiful and dreamlike world of Gabriel Fauré’s Piano Quartet No. 1. Program: Franz Schubert: Piano Trio, No. 1 (40') Medvirkende Anna Agafia (violin), Jonathan Swensen (cello), Gustav Piekut (piano) *** intermission *** Germaine Tailleferre: Violin Sonata No. 1 (15') Medvirkende Ludvig Gudim (violin), David Munk-Nielsen (piano) Gabriel Fauré: Piano Quartet, No. 1 (30') Medvirkende Anna Agafia (violin), Yura Lee (viola), Andreas Brantelid (cello), David Munk-Nielsen (piano)
