The second movement of Arnold Schönberg’s only Violin Concerto, dedicated to his Viennese pupil and “comrade-in-arms” Anton Webern, begins with an elegiac melody in the highest registers of the solo instrument – a wistful glance from the new world towards the past? One of the composer’s early American pupils was John Cage, whose Nocturne seeks to soften the timbral differences between violin and piano. In addition to a piano trio by Peter Jona Korn, the main work of the concert will be Schönberg’s seminal string trio, composed in American exile during the recovery phase after a near-death experience, which has gained a firm place in the concert repertoire thanks to its diverse soundworld and expressive intensity.
