But following this anniversary there is some sad news, with the recent passing of our President, Jeanie, Countess of Carnarvon. Her energy, commitment and enthusiasm from the outset and throughout the evolution of the Festival have been fundamental to its success. The Duchess of Kent and I have seen the Festival grow from humble beginnings to an internationally renowned arts festival, having faced and overcome many obstacles along the way. Jeanie, Countess of Carnarvon, can be justly proud of the Festival’s achievements. Her legacy must surely be a Festival that continues to flourish as we embark on the next forty years. www.newburyspringfestival.org.uk 1 2019-NSF book.qxp_NSF programme book 23/04/2019 12:31 Page 2 Jeanie, Countess of Carnarvon MBE Founder and President 1935 - 2019 2 box office 0845 5218 218 2019-NSF book.qxp_NSF programme book 23/04/2019 12:31 Page 3 The Festival’s founder and president, Jeanie Countess of Carnarvon was a great and much loved lady who we will always remember for her inspirational support of Newbury Spring Festival and her gentle and gracious presence at so many events over the years. Her son Lord Carnarvon pays tribute to her with the following words. My darling mother’s lifelong interest in the arts and music started in her childhood in the USA. -

Many thanks to MOZART GESELLSCHAFT DORTMUND e.V. and to OPLÄNDER STIFTUNG for the generous support. 2 3 »Diese Sonaten sind die einzigen in ihrer Art. […] Dabey ist das Accompagnement der Violine mit der Clavierpartie so künstlich verbunden, daß beide Instrumente in beständiger Aufmerk - samkeit unterhalten werden; so daß diese Sonaten einen eben so fertigen Violin- als Clavier- LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN (177 0–1827 ) Spieler erfordern.« Mit diesen Worten pries man im Magazin der Musik von Carl Friedrich Sonate für Klavier und Violine Nr. 6 A-Dur op. 30 Nr. 1 Cramer die originelle Qualität der im Jahr 1781 als Opus II veröffentlichten Six Sonates pour 1 Allegro 7 : 54 le Clavecin, ou Piano Forte avec l‘accomagnement d’un Violon von Wolfgang Amadeus 2 Adagio molto espressivo 7 : 17 Mozart. Entgegen den Konventionen bemühte sich der Komponist – der damit als Begründer 3 Allegretto con variazioni 8 : 20 der modernen Violinsonate gelten kann – in seinen späten Sonaten um ein ausgewogeneres Verhältnis beider Instrumente. In folgender Generation war es Ludwig van Beethoven, der das Prinzip des musikalischen Dialogs aufgriff und mit seinen Werken den grundlegenden Typus CLAUDE DEBUSSY (1862 –1918 ) für Sonaten mit zwei gleichberechtigten Partnern schuf. Sonate für Violine und Klavier g-Moll 4 Allegro vivo 5 : 29 Dieser Entwicklung der Duopartnerschaft ging eine Norm voraus, in der die Violine stets eine 5 Intermède – Fantasque et léger 4 : 55 untergeordnete Rolle gespielt hatte. -
