Overview

The venue’s own flexible home-team fields altogether four players for this programme of much-loved pieces. Beethoven’s 1797 trio is sometimes called the ‘Gassenhauer’ (‘Gasse’ meaning ‘street’ or ‘alley’) because its third movement’s variations are based on a tune from Joseph Weigl’s L’amor marinaro so popular that it was once sung in every Viennese street!

This concert is part of the CAVATINA Chamber Music Trust ticket scheme, offering free tickets to those aged 8-25
