Programme Note

From the lyrical freshness of Beethoven's 'Spring' Sonata, through a solemn observation of Chassidic life and culminating in a rhapsodic, gypsy-influenced second half of music by Ravel, Franco Mezzena (multi award-winning Italian violinist and conductor) pushes the technical and expressive range of the violin with fellow countryman, pianist Stefano Giavazzi.
