Overview
In 1802 Beethoven accepted medical advice and moved to the village of Heiligenstadt. The change of scene sparked a period of extraordinary creativity during which he wrote his spellbinding Violin Sonata No. 6 in A.
Jack Liebeck’s recital pairs Beethoven’s work with the ill-fated Guillaume Lekeu’s impassioned Violin Sonata in G, a composition of dramatic contrasts and compelling energy.
