Beethoven Weekend: Saturday Daytime

This immersive weekend offers the unique experience to hear all of Beethoven's major chamber works with piano - violin sonatas, cello sonatas and piano trios - in six concerts, performed by three of Britain's leading chamber players.

Daniel Tong has been playing Beethoven's works since he was a teenager, and gave his first cycle of the violin sonatas a quarter of a century ago. He has recorded these works for SOMM Recordings, and the cello sonatas (alongside Robin Michae★★l) and a disc of Beethoven's solo piano sonatas for Resonus Classics. Joining him for this weekend will be two long-time musical partners, the violinist Sara Trickey, member of the Rosetti Ensemble and regular concerto soloist around the UK, and Robin Michael, principal cellist in Les Siecles and the Orchestre Revolutionnaire et Romantique.

Step into the world of Beethoven for the entire weekend, or join us for individual events. Concerts are complemented by two illustrated talks from musicologist and broadcaster Richard Wigmore.
