This concert celebrates the life and legacy of Bernard Greenhouse with the music of what Greenhouse deemed the most “human” of all composers: Ludwig van Beethoven. In one hour, this concert will take its audience on a compact yet fully realized journey into the most profound transition of Beethoven’s musical life: his artistic revolution, fired in the crucible of isolation and despair, that took place between 1811 and 1815.  We offer two works that bookend this time frame and corresponding cataclysmic shift in Beethoven’s musical style: the “Archduke” Piano Trio and the Cello Sonata in C major, Op. 102 No. 1.
