Camerata Pacifica will usher in the new year with a chamber music program featuring works for viola and piano by Beethoven, Schubert, and Schumann. The concerts will take place January 11–16 across four Southern California venues, with violist Che-Yen Chen and pianist Gilles Vonsattel as featured artists.
The program continues Camerata Pacifica’s ongoing “Beethoven 32” project, a multi-year cycle presenting all 32 of Beethoven’s piano sonatas. As part of the series, Vonsattel will perform Beethoven’s Piano Sonata No. 27 in E Minor, Op. 90, and Piano Sonata No. 19 in G Minor, Op. 49, No. 1. The program also includes Schubert’s Arpeggione Sonata in A Minor, D. 821, and Schumann’s Märchenbilder, Op. 113.
Chen and Vonsattel will be joined throughout the tour, bringing together solo piano repertoire and collaborative chamber works in a program that spans early Romantic and Classical-era music.
