Ludwig van Beethoven: String Trio in G Major, op. 9, no. 1
Alexander Borodin: String Trio in G Minor - Variations on a Russian Song
John Mackey: Wrong Mountain Stomp

Featuring Wave Collective members Ani Bukujian on violin and Alexandra Simpson on viola.

This is shaping up to be a truly fun Groupmuse. We can count on young Ludwig for electric musical energy, but to our ears, the wild card in his ambitious String Trio in G is the final movement - it sounds like Viennese fiddling! Alexander Borodin gives us a moment of repose painted in the dark colors of a Rembrandt, then we hop onto John Mackey's runaway train. Written for a summer music festival, Wrong Mountain Stomp tells the story of a young girl leaving home in the language of bluegrass.
