Sandrine Piau et Trio Wanderer

Sandrine Piau, soprano Jean-Marc Philips-Varjabédian, violin Vincent Coq, piano Raphael Pidoux, cello Olivier Bellamy, narrator What if Beethoven were the spiritual guide the disoriented world has been waiting for? As selfishness runs rampant and human folly tramples the world, Beethoven’s libertarian message resonates even more powerfully. In his work, the aspiration for new paths is never severed from an admiration for the past. Under the guidance of Olivier Bellamy, who tells us about Beethoven, the Trio Wanderer goes out of its way (sometimes in pairs) to take us on a journey through some of the treasures of the Michelangelo of music. As Beethoven said: “Music is a revelation higher than all wisdom and all philosophy.” PROGRAM BEETHOVEN Lieder for voice and piano Interwoven with excerpts from “The Spirits” Trio Sonata for Violin and Piano “Kreutzer” Symphony No. 2 Sonata for Cello and Piano No. 3 Trio “Archduke”
