Experience a 2nd evening of exceptional music by Beethoven and Haydn. Beethoven’s String Trio in E flat major was influenced by Mozart’s string trio, a masterpiece also in E flat and also with six movements. Beethoven’s innovation is to push the trio’s capabilities even further, with full bodied writing often taking the piece beyond three and even four parts with the use of double stopping. 

Between the 1760s and 1770s, Haydn wrote over 120 trios for baryton, viola, and cello, primarily for his patron, Prince Nikolaus Esterházy, an avid baryton player himself. These trios are intimate, charming, and full of inventive textures, offering a glimpse into Haydn’s wit, imagination, and skill at writing music that was both personal and elegant.

Experiencing a 2nd evening on Fanø with this stellar lineup of musicians including Alexi Kenney, Tim Crawford, Maja Horvat, Michel Camille, Isidora Timotijevic, Pau Codina, Eddie Pogossian and Kristina Edin, this concert programme takes you on a journey through Romantic chamber music.

Highlights include Strauss’s “Capriccio, String Sextet, Op. 85” with its lyrical introduction, Roxanna Panufnik’s evocative “Hora Bessarabia” for violin and double bass, Eugène Ysaÿe’s dynamic “Trio ‘Le Londres'” for two violins and viola, and Strauss’s deeply emotional “Metamorphosen” for string septet. Each piece uniquely enhances the evening’s exploration of diverse musical landscapes, offering a rich and engaging experience for all attendees.

Tonight’s concert programme features an exquisite lineup of internationally acclaimed musicians, including violinists Maria Wloszczowska, Pablo Hernán Benedí, and Tim Crawford; violists Michel Camille and Hélène Clément; and cellists Pau Codina and Eddie Pogossian.

This selection promises an evening filled with both beauty and technical prowess, showcasing the skills of our world-class ensemble.
