Michele Pasotti in conversation with Donald Macleod at Tetbury Goods Shed.

St Mary's Church Tetbury.  Tickets £10 - £35

One of the world’s greatest violin virtuosos, Viktoria Mullova continues her collaboration with Alasdair Beatson, together playing Beethoven and Schubert on gut strings and fortepiano. 

During their three-year collaboration they have released a first duo disc of Schubert, followed by a Beethoven disc of Sonatas 6, 1 and 8 in 2024, and more recently their third duo album of Beethoven Sonatas 2 and 10. The combination of fortepiano and gut string violin are what Beethoven’s music craves, giving a rich texture and distinct colours between the registers.

This evening they perform Beethoven's 2nd, 3rd and 9th Sonatas. The fortepiano has been hired from Wigmore Hall, and Viktoria plays either her ‘Jules Falk’ 1723 Stradivarius or her Guadagnini violin.

Ludwig van Beethoven:
Sonata No 3 in E flat major
Sonata No 2 in A major
Sonata No 9 in A major, ‘Kreutzer'

St Marys Church, Tetbury.  Tickets £10 - £35.

The renowned Italian ensemble La Fonte Musica returns to Tetbury under the baton of Michele Pasotti with a performance of 'La Sera del Combattimento' which recreates the first performance of Monteverdi’s 'Il combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda', following the composer’s own vivid account of that historic evening.

Although a man of few words, Monteverdi left invaluable guidance on how the work should be presented for maximum effect, which is being followed tonight. He noted that the 'Combattimento' should be preceded by madrigals sung 'without any gesture,' so that the sudden entrance of the protagoniste would heighten the sense of dramatic surprise. 

When programmed in this way Monteverdi’s revolutionary fusion of music, poetry, and drama regains the sense of novelty and theatrical power that astonished its first audiences.
