Artistic Partner Mei-Ann Chen leads the Sinfonietta in an exploration of one of music’s most enduring mysteries: the true identity of Beethoven’s “Immortal Beloved.” In this new violin concerto composed by Nancy Ives for Concertmaster Denise Dillenbeck, Ives tells the stories of three women
in Beethoven’s life, each with such talents and fortitude of spirit that they may have inspired his undying affection.
Beethoven’s Triple Concerto for violin, cello and piano featuring the Puget Sound Piano Trio closes the program.
