Beethoven's Ghost
Evening Music | May 6, 2010
When Ludwig van Beethoven wrote his "Ghost" Trio in 1808, it was his first venture into the genre in eleven years. Named for the "spooky" second movement of the piece, the "Ghost" is undoubtedly one of the composer's most original chamber works (we hear a performance from the Trio Fontenay). Also tonight, music from Baroque viol master Marin Marais, and J.S. Bach's ever-popular Cello Suite No. 1, from Dutch performer Pieter Wispelwey.
