PROGRAMME

Mozart: Fantasia no. 3 in D minor, K. 397 / Adagio for piano in B minor, K. 540 / Beethoven: Sonata no. 30 in E major, Op. 109 / Mompou: Cançó i dansa no. 6 / Variations on a theme of Chopin / Falla: “Andaluza” from Four Spanish Pieces / Fantasía baetica

For his regular summer meeting with the Torroella Festival audience, Joaquín Achúcarro has planned the first part of his concert programme with Viennese classics – two works by Mozart and one of Beethoven’s late piano sonatas, his Opus 109, in which the composer’s great liberty in the scheme of the movements is a total departure from the traditional format. In the second part, Achúcarro will play music from the 20th century, with works by Frederic Mompou and Manuel de Falla.
