Beethoven & Brahms
Banquet of Sound
Beethoven's Triple Concerto is one of the few pieces for joint soloists still performed today. From a quiet opening emerges music that’s all about the interplay between soloists.
Duration
This concert will conclude at approximately 10pm on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday evenings, and 3.30pm on Thursday.
Pre-Concert
There will be no pre-concert talk prior to this performance commencing.
Program
Behind every great piece is a great story. Have a read through the program book to get all the details.
This is a wonderful opportunity to hear the skills of Concertmaster Andrew Haveron, cellist Umberto Clerici and Australian pianist Piers Lane.
Unfairly overlooked by history, Schreker was one of the most prominent Austrian composers of the early 20th century thanks to sweeping, richly coloured works such as this Intermezzo. Brahms' Symphony No.3 provides the perfect conclusion. From a dramatic and passionate opening unfolds music that’s classically romantic.
