Patricia Kopatchinskaja and Joonas Ahonen play violin sonatas by Beethoven.

Presented by Sarah Walker

In his 250th anniversary year, last year's prestigious Gstaad Menuhin Festival focused on the music of Ludwig van Beethoven.

Patricia Kopatchinskaja and Joonas Ahonen pair his so-called 'Kreutzer' sonata, written on an epic scale, with a slightly earlier, less well-known sonata notable for a soulful and quirky slow movement.
