“Ich bin Bachianer” I – Humility & Models VI – Francesco Piemontesi II
Chamber Music
Friday, 21 July 2023
7.30 pm, Rougemont Church
For the second part of his residency, Francesco Piemontesi has invited violinist Stephen Waarts and cellist Daniel Müller-Schott to the almost 1,000-year-old Rougemont Church. Mentored at the beginning by Anne-Sophie Mutter, the latter released with Piemontesi in 2020 a very beautiful recording of Brahms' Sonatas for Cello and Piano and will endeavour here to revive with her the spirit of a short-lived instrument called the arpeggione (or guitar-cello), developed in 1823 by Johann Georg Stauffer and for which Schubert is the only one to have taken a real interest.
