    Carolyn Huebl, violin
    Mark Wait, piano
    Prokofiev Sonata in D major, Op. 94a
    Korngold Suite from Much Ado About Nothing, Op. 11
    Schumann Sonata in D minor, Op. 121

    Join us for this special evening featuring two of the most splendid works in the violin and piano repertoire. Huebl and Wait will open the program with Prokofiev’s neo-classical D major Sonata for Violin and Piano. Composed in 1942, this lovely work was originally for piano and flute. A year later, it was arranged for violin at the insistence of the composer’s good friend, violinist David Oistrakh, who knew the singing lyrical lines would suit the violin’s temperament beautifully. Nearly a century earlier, in 1851, Clara Schumann and Joseph Joachim premiered Robert Schumann’s Sonata in D minor, Op. 121. This work shows Schumann at his most moving, melodic, and expressive; with characters and moods that range from great pathos, to gentle sweetness, to powerful heroism. Between these two masterworks, Huebl and Wait will present the charming Much Ado About Nothing, Op. 11. This delightful work is based on incidental music composed by beloved film composer Erich Korngold in 1918-19 for the Shakespeare play.
