Overview
The Hagner sisters offer a fascinating programmeas they bridge a century of music history withBartók’s First Rhapsody, built around six Romanianfolk tunes, and Schubert’s Fantasy in C, partlybased on the melody of one of his songs.
They thenchart the impressionist complexities of Debussy’slate Violin Sonata and the virtuosity of Saint-Saëns’sFirst Violin Sonata.
