Then, Zoltán Kodály’s Serenade for two violins and viola, Op.12 is a delightful interplay of textures and harmonies that highlights the voices of each instrument. The evening concludes with Edvard Grieg’s Violin Sonata No.3 in C minor, Op.45, a masterpiece filled with yearning melodies and rich Romantic gestures.
This program of music performed by Dale, Francesca, Chris and Andrea promises to be a gripping ride through many musical landscapes; hold on tight, and enjoy!
