Leonidas Kavakos and Enrico Pace by Wolfgang Lienbacher
Carnegie Hall’s Vienna: City of Dreams festival in 2014 explored the cultural splendor of the great Austrian city where Beethoven composed and premiered his greatest works. One of the festival highlights was a complete cycle of the composer’s sonatas for violin and piano with Leonidas Kavakos and Enrico Pace. In this recording from the Salzburg Festival in 2012, the duo performs the “Kreutzer” Sonata, famously named after Beethoven’s second dedicatee in an act of artistic revenge.

Available until September 3, 2021 at 12 PM (Eastern).

Watch on August 27
