The program begins with one of Beethoven's lesser known, but nonetheless brilliant, sonatas, no. 8 in G major, opus 30 no.3. This is a charming and cheerful sonata in three movements. It is followed by one of Brahms's great masterpieces, the first Cello Sonata in E minor with its profoundly beautiful first movement, playful minuet and a robust finale based on Bach's Art of Fugue. After intermission the three musicians will perform Mendelssohn's Trio in D minor which is one of the most popular works for piano trio and is representative of the high romantic period. After the trio, we will be treated to a performance of Ilan Rechtman's "Jazzicles".
