Symphonies this week as well: Shostakovich 5th, Beethoven 7th, Tchaikovsky 4th...join us for the "Evening Concert"

Some people can tell the difference in pitch, others not. Whether you can or cannot tell the difference, there are two works tonight in the "Key of G Minor".

Together they are often referred to as "The Viennese Masters": Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert.....Sir Andrass Schiff plays their music, in recital.

In 1806 German poet Christian Schubart published a book (Ideas for an Aesthetic of Music) on the "affective" characteristics (emotional impact) of the 'keys' of music, for example, C Major, G Minor, etc. Tonight's program should be "bright", with many pieces in the key of D Major, described by Schubart as: "The key of triumph, of Hallejuahs, of war-cries, of victory-rejoicing. "

Four evenings of orchestral music recorded live in concert....Bach Orchestral Suites, a Haydn Cello Concerto, and more. Won't you join us?
