    Ludwig van Beethoven: The String Trios Sinae Baek, violin Cesia Corrales, viola Paul Christopher, cello Program Notes by Jackson Harmeyer Tonight’s program centers on the trios of Beethoven, and we hear two of these—numerically the first and the last in The genre of string trio was one which occupied Ludwig his catalogue. The String Trio in E-flat major, Opus 3, is van Beethoven for only a few years. All five of his trios for Beethoven’s earliest, published in 1796. Much like the trio violin, viola, and cello were written in the 1790s and by Mozart, which he had titled “Divertimento,” published in Vienna. Beethoven would write no further Beethoven’s Opus 3 is in six movements and follow his string trios after starting his impressive cycle of sixteen same pattern. Both trios begin with a fast first movement string quartets in 1798. Yet, alongside the one string trio which applies sonata principle; they continue with a slow produced by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, the five created second movement, a minuet, another slow movement, and by Beethoven are regarded as the greatest works of their another minuet; and finally conclude with a fast sixth genre produced in the eighteenth century. Together they movement in rondo form. Beethoven even snatches mark the first pinnacle in this genre’s history, as Mozart’s conspicuous key signature of E-flat major, one Beethoven’s turn away from the string trio would prove which would have posed difficulties for string players of symptomatic of a larger trend: though the eighteenth that era.

  • Guide to Repertoire
    Guide to Repertoire The chamber music repertoire is both wonderful and almost endless. Some have better grips on it than others, but all who are responsible for what the public hears need to know the landscape of the art form in an overall way, with at least a basic awareness of its details. At the end of the day, it is the music itself that is the substance of the work of both the performer and presenter. Knowing the basics of the repertoire will empower anyone who presents concerts. Here is a run-down of the meat-and-potatoes of the chamber literature, organized by instrumentation, with some historical context. Chamber music ensembles can be most simple divided into five groups: those with piano, those with strings, wind ensembles, mixed ensembles (winds plus strings and sometimes piano), and piano ensembles. Note: The listings below barely scratch the surface of repertoire available for all types of ensembles. The Major Ensembles with Piano The Duo Sonata (piano with one violin, viola, cello or wind instrument) Duo repertoire is generally categorized as either a true duo sonata (solo instrument and piano are equal partners) or as a soloist and accompanist ensemble. For our purposes here we are only discussing the former. Duo sonatas have existed since the Baroque era, and Johann Sebastian Bach has many examples, all with “continuo” accompaniment that comprises full partnership. His violin sonatas, especially, are treasures, and can be performed equally effectively with harpsichord, fortepiano or modern piano. Haydn continued to develop the genre; Mozart wrote an enormous number of violin sonatas (mostly for himself to play as he was a professional-level violinist as well).
