Chamber music of the 18th and 20th centuries comes to the Theatre at Little Washington on Saturday, May 17 in a concert at 8 p.m.
Violinist Hasse Borup and cellist Amy Leung will perform in this unusual program.
Two works by the German composer Johann Sebastian Bach form the first part of the program: the Suite No. 2 in D minor for Unaccompanied Cello and the Sonata No. 3 in C major for Solo Violin.
Bach was born in 1685 and died in 1750. He is universally recognized as one of the greatest composers of the Baroque period.
The musical mood is set to change after the intermission with a single work by the French composer, Maurice Ravel, who lived from 1875 to 1937. Borup and Leung will play Ravel’s Sonata for Violin and Cello which was composed in 1922.
The two young musicians who perform this challenging program have a wealth of musical experience between them.
Hasse Borup received his Diploma from the Royal Danish Conservatory of Music and obtained advance degrees in this country. In 1992 he received the International Yamaha Music Prize—the only Dane ever to have won that award. As concertmaster of the Copenhagen String Orchestra he has played concerts throughout Europe, including solo performances in Venice, Cremona, Paris and Copenhagen.
