Today: Beethoven’s Rondo a Capriccio Op. 129, Brahms’ Piano Trio No.1 and Brahms’ Hungarian Dances No.2 (1, 2, 3 and 6).
The rerun of this programme will be on Thursday 5 November 2020, 11-12am. Because of the coronavirus crisis, also this episode has been recorded in the absence of Louis Thörig, and in Geoffrey’s own studio instead of in Marco Wensveen’s studio.
