Ludwig van Beethoven – Violin Sonata No. 9, Op. 47 in A major "Kreutzer"
Listen to iconic masterpieces with new ears as NPR & PBS music commentator, conductor, composer, author, and pianist Rob Kapilow shows you what you've been missing!
Beethoven wrote his celebrated Kreutzer Sonata at a pivotal moment in his life, when a major psychological breakdown had radically altered his artistic vision and sparked a musical and personal self-reinvention. The result was an extraordinary, conflicted, contradictory masterpiece – the first radically individual violin sonata in the history of music.
The broadcast will take place at 7pm Eastern / 4pm Pacific.
Ticket buyers will receive an email with a link to this concert before the performance.
