Journeys through Sonatas
Lorenzo Gatto, violin
Jean-Claude Vanden Eynden, piano
This programme invites you on a journey through the landscapes of the sonata, an intimate and expressive form par excellence. From the elegant, lilting light of Fauré to the delicate, pictorial hues of Jongen’s Aquarelles, the listener is guided through contrasting and sensitive worlds. Schubert’s Wanderer Fantasy, a work of movement and transformation, embodies romantic wandering and the yearning for distant lands. In response, Brahms’s Second Sonata offers a warm and profound respite, where lyricism and serenity echo one another. Between passion, contemplation and energy, this concert weaves a musical journey where each work becomes a stage, a landscape, an emotion — a true journey through sonatas.
