# BEGINNINGS  
*Yo-Yo Ma in Recital*

"It’s been almost exactly fifty years since I played my debut recital in Carnegie Hall on May 6, 1971, and I’ve been thinking a lot about other ‘firsts:’ the first pieces I studied with Leonard Rose as a young student (which include the Francoeur Sonata), the first piece I ever performed in public (the Prélude of Bach’s second cello suite), and my first foray into recording music from the violin repertoire (Paganini and Kreisler). Join me as I revisit a few of these first experiments."

The performance will be available on demand for 48 hours starting May 1 at 6pm EDT.

In this program you will encounter a different Niccolò Paganini, the composer who became notorious for his super virtuosic pieces, the more human, the more romantic composer. These pieces, written for this very unique instrumentation, were never meant to be performed in a grand concert hall. They were composed for intimate private parties and weddings. The Serenata was written for the wedding of his sister Domenica in 1808, the manuscript includes a small movement, Polacca, written by Niccolòs' granddaughter Nicola Paganini. The Terzetto Concertante was written in 1833, in an era that is actually very parallel to ours right now: the era of the 2nd wave of the cholera pandemic. Paganini performed numerous benefit concerts for the cholera victims and their families. The concert will be performed on historical instrumentation, including an original Guadagnini guitar and an Italian viola made in Brescia in 1820.

*Örzse Adam – Viola, Artistic Leader, playing an Italian viola made in Brescia in 1820*
*Izhar Elias – Classical Guitar, playing an original Guadagnini guitar*
*Balázs Máté - Violoncello, playing a Tecchler cello from the late 1700s*

# The Beethoven Project I
The superb players of the Dresden Festival Orchestra come from many European cities, including Vienna, Berlin, Paris, Amsterdam, Freiburg, and London. All players are experts for 'performance practice' and play on period instruments. Hearing Beethoven's Symphonies on the instruments of his time is a rare pleasure. The experience brings us closer to the sound of the world premiere of these works and helps us understand the emotions and motivations behind those genius creations. The wonderful Catalan conductor Josep Caballe-Domenech is familiar with this very special orchestra, having conducted the group on tour and in Dresden during the Festival.
