Chamber Music in the Ulster Hall 3/ 4
The penultimate recital this week recorded in the Ulster Hall. Ronald Brautigam performs an all Beethoven programme - The Sonata in B flat has been lauded as the crowning glory of the composer's early sonatas and was apparently Beethoven's favourite! The Eroica Variations are dedicated to Count Moritz Lichnowsky - the brother of Beethoven's patron Prince Karl Lichnowsky and a former pupil of Mozart. The theme of the variations appears in several other works-the finale of Beethoven's Eroica Symphony, and in the ballet The Creatures of Prometheus; indeed had the composer's intentions been followed the work may well have been known as the Prometheus Variations.
