Resonance concerts are fabulous, one-hour events which highlight some of the world's greatest music, performed by leading singers and instrumentalists from Sydney and beyond. They are followed by complimentary drinks. This month, two of the most monumental piano sonatas in history are brought to the stage by pianist Chris Cartner. Beethoven’s ‘Appassionata’ (meaning ‘passionate’) is a work which sums up the depth of his personality: a world-changing sonata of humanity, rage, love and deep emotional impact. The second half features the third (and final) piano sonata by Brahms. Truly a ‘symphony for the piano’, the work contains arguably some of the greatest melodic material of the 19th Century. From its devastating opening, through a profoundly beautiful second movement and a wild ‘scherzo’, the finale is almost cinematic in scope. The sonata remains one of the highlights of the entire piano repertoire. |
