THE CAPITOL ENSEMBLE WITH GUEST CELLIST ROBERT DEMAINE, PERFORM PIANO TRIO MASTERPIECES BY BEETHOVEN & SCHUMANN, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 13TH, 7:30 PM, CONTRAPUNTAL HALL, BRENTWOOD.
THE CAPITOL ENSEMBLE'S VIOLINIST PHILLIP LEVY AND PIANIST RINA DOKSHITSKY ARE JOINED BY SPECIAL GUEST ROBERT DEMAINE, PRINCIPLE CELLIST OF THE LOS ANGELES PHILHARMONIC, IN AN EXCITING EVENING OF PIANO TRIO MASTERPIECES BY BEETHOVEN AND SCHUMANN, IN THE UNPARALLELED ACOUSTICS OF BRENTWOOD'S BEAUTIFUL CONTRAPUNTAL HALL, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 13TH AT 7:30 PM.
BEETHOVEN'S PIANO TRIO IN E FLAT OP.70 NO.2, ONE OF HIS MOST ALLURING AND UNUSUAL COMPOSITIONS. GENTLE AND POETIC IN SPIRIT, EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS WORK PIECE FEELS LIKE AN EXPERIMENT OF GENIUS AND IS A FITTING TRIBUTE TO THE MASTERS UPCOMING 250TH BIRTH YEAR.
ROBERT SCHUMANN'S PIANO TRIO OP.80 IS AN EXCITING MASTERPIECE THAT POINTS TOWARDS A NEW EXPRESSION IN MUSIC. SCHUMANN CREATES A NEW SOUND NEVER HEARD BEFORE, RICH AND ROMANTIC, YET CLASSICAL IN FORM. "IT IS ONE OF ROBERT'S PIECES THAT WARMS THE COCKLES OF MY HEART AND DELIGHTS ME FROM FIRST TO LAST. I LOVE IT PASSIONATELY AND COULD GO ON PLAYING IT FOREVER" (CLARA SCHUMANN)
