Horszowski Trio: Immortal Beethoven, Home in Vienna

Horszowski Trio: Immortal Beethoven, Home in Vienna

Presented by Longy School of Music of Bard College at Pickman Concert Hall, Longy School of Music (Bard College)

Op. 1 sounds like the very beginning, but Beethoven had written much before these pieces—they were, instead, his Viennese and publishing debut. Beethoven moved from his hometown in Bonn to Vienna and found a new mentor in Haydn and a patron in Prince Karl Lichnowsky—to whom these trios are dedicated. Paired with his first opus is a work by prominent Japanese composer Akira Nishimura; an homage to Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata written for Horszowski Trio pianist, Rieko Aizawa.

Longy is excited to announce that the acclaimed Horszowski Trio will be Ensemble-in-Residence this year. The trio will offer a series of three recitals exploring Homeland and its role in Beethoven’s life.
