Sommets Musicaux de Gstaad: Maria Joao Pires, Renaud Capuçon

Renaud Capuçon violin | Maria João Pires piano

The 22nd edition of the Sommets Musicaux de Gstaad hosted the great Portuguese pianist Maria João Pires and French violin virtuoso Renaud Capuçon! 
They perform a programme celebrating the sonata, keystone of the Classical era, beginning with Mozart's poignant Violin Sonata No. 21—written in 1778 while the composer was in Paris grieving the death of his mother, this moving sonata is Mozart's only instrumental work in the plaintive key of E Minor.

Repertoire

W.A. Mozart: Sonata for Piano and Violin No. 21 in E minor (K. 304); W.A. Mozart: Sonata for Violin No. 27 in G major (K.379/373a); Beethoven: Sonata for Violin and Piano No. 5 in F major, Op. 24 "Le Printemps"; Beethoven: Sonata for Violin and Piano No. 6 in A major, Op. 30 No. 1
