Concert 4 - Owen-Apekisheva Piano Duo

L. van Beethoven: Sonata for four hands in D major, Op. 6
M. Ravel: “Mother Goose” Suite
G. Fauré. “Dolly” Suite, Op. 56
G. Holst: A selection from “The Planets” Suite, Op. 32

Katya and Charles are old friends of the Festival, both in the guise of solo pianists and in their renowned duo. Their matinee concert starts with one of Beethoven’s earliest works and then moves onto suites: three of the most famous in the repertoire, two from French composers, one English. "Mother Goose" and "Dolly" are a great deal of fun; "The Planets", more serious!
