This concert presents a programme of rarely performed works that look ahead to new musical ideas and expressive possibilities.

The Fantasies by C. P. E. Bach and Schubert explore mood and atmosphere in ways that anticipate the Romantic movement. André Previn, best known as a conductor, was also a fine pianist and composer, and his Violin Sonatas reflect his close musical partnership with violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter.

The programme also features a suite for violin and piano by Erich Wolfgang Korngold, drawn from incidental music written in 1919 and first performed at Schönbrunn Palace in Vienna, revealing the confidence and imagination of a remarkable young composer.
