The Classical Masters concert is an upcoming performance by violinist William Hagen and pianist Marina Radiushina, featuring the works of three of the most celebrated composers in classical music history: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Ludwig van Beethoven, and Franz Schubert.

​

The program opens with Mozart's Sonata for violin and piano in B-flat Major, K.454, a work that showcases the composer's exceptional skill in crafting melodies and harmonies. Composed in 1784, the piece displays Mozart's mastery of the sonata form, while also incorporating elements of the Baroque style.

​

Next, the duo will perform Beethoven's Sonata for piano and violin No. 7 in C Minor, Op. 30. This work, written in 1802, represents a pivotal moment in Beethoven's career, as he was just beginning to experiment with new forms and structures. The sonata's dramatic intensity and expressive depth make it one of the most enduring works in the violin-piano repertoire.

​

The concert will conclude with Franz Schubert's Rondo Brilliant for violin and piano, D.895. Composed in 1826, the Rondo Brilliant is a lively and virtuosic work that showcases Schubert's unique blend of classical elegance and Romantic passion. The piece features dazzling displays of technical virtuosity, as well as moments of breathtaking beauty and tenderness.
