J.S. Bach: Duo Sonata for Violin & Keyboard in
F minor, BWV1018
Arvo Pärt: Spiegel im Spiegel (‘Mirror in the Mirror’)
Robert
Schumann: Violin Sonata No.2 in D minor, Op.121
Our series of three
concerts with Tamsin and Cordelia features music to be enjoyed at
different times of the day. Bach’s early F minor sonata was believed by
his son, CPE Bach, to be “among the best works of my dear father.” Arvo
Pärt’s profoundly beautiful Spiegel im Spiegel (‘Mirror in the Mirror’)
was his last work written before he moved from Estonia to the west in1978,
but one of his earliest minimalist pieces. Violinist Joseph Joachim, who
premiered Schumann’s 2nd Violin Sonata, declared that the work “overflows
with noble passion…one of the finest compositions of our time.”
“Waley-Cohen’s
playing is radiant and soaring.” The Sunday Times
