Let me start with a general remarks: the acoustics in the Tonhalle Maag are fairly good. Andante tranquillo - Vivace - Andante - Vivace di più - Andante - Vivace.These posts have descriptions and additional information on the composition. I have written about this in an earlier concert review, from a duo recital in Zurich, on, and I have also posted a short comparison of three recordings of this piece. It’s Brahms’ most serene, most melodic violin sonata. It was published as op.100 only in 1897, the year in which the composer died. Johannes Brahms (1833 – 1897) composed his Violin Sonata No.2 in A major, op.100, “Thun Sonata” in 1886, during a stay in Thun, Switzerland (hence the name of the sonata). Encore - Johannes Brahms (1833 – 1897): Violin Sonata “F.A.E.”, Scherzo (Allegro) in C minor, WoO 2īrahms: Violin Sonata No.2 in A major, op.100, “Thun Sonata”.Dmitri Shostakovich (1906 – 1975): Violin Sonata in G major, op.134.Karol Szymanowski (1882 – 1937): “Mythes” for Violin and Piano, op.30, M.29.Johannes Brahms (1833 – 1897): Violin Sonata No.2 in A major, op.100, “Thun Sonata”.The fact that Yulianna Avdeeva has received parts of her education in the Zurich area (I recognized one of her teachers in the audience) certainly contributes to her popularity. One can take this as a measure for the popularity of the two young artists. The stage gallery remained nearly empty, but the parquet seating was sold amazingly well, for a chamber music event. Wisely, the organizers only sold seats on the balconies and in the front part (about 2/3) of the parquet. That venue does not feature a dedicated chamber music hall, just the one hall that also serves orchestral performances. The concert was held in the temporary concert venue of the Tonhalle-Gesellschaft, the Tonhalle Maag. She also owns a 2011 violin by Philipp Augustin. Julia Fischer most likely played a 1742 violin by Giovanni Battista Guadagnini (1711 – 1786). The two artists have become friends and are now touring Europe with a duo recital program. I have previously written about this artist on the occasion of a concert performance in Zurich, on. The violinist (and pianist) Julia Fischer (*1983, see again Wikipedia for additional information) also lives in Munich. ![]() I have written about Yulianna Avdeeva in numerous blog posts, covering both concerts (the first one dating back to 2008), as well as CD recordings. ![]() The Russian pianist Yulianna Avdeeva (*1985, see also Wikipedia for information) lives in the Munich area.
