成人快手

This week's series of Lunchtime Concerts features concerts recorded in Dublin, Belfast and Omagh. The members of the Capu莽on Trio performed an all-Faur茅 programme in Dublin's National Concert Hall last spring. Meanwhile, 成人快手 Radio 3 New Generation Artists, the Danish Quartet took part in Moving on Music's Tour of Northern Ireland during the autumn. Today a violin sonata by Faur茅 and a string quartet by Haydn.
The first of Faur茅's two violin sonatas, the Sonata in A major, Op. 13, was written in 1875 and 1876. Dedicated to Paul Viardot, the son of the singer Pauline Viardot and brother of the girl to whom Faur茅 was briefly engaged, it is considered one of his early masterpieces. Youthfulness, elegance and the ease of the melody, for which Faur茅 became synonymous, are apparent from the beginning. Haydn's F minor string quartet, written in 1771, goes back to the earliest days of the string quartet. Throughout the six quartets that make up Opus 20 Haydn introduces compositional techniques that were to shape and define the genre. The set is renowned for the range and contrast of emotion explored in each quarter. The sorrowful No.5 in F minor is one of the best known and immediately recognisable from its opening elegiac main theme.
