To mark the 250th anniversary of Beethoven’s birth, Russian born arranger Paul Struck has arranged two of the composer’s great mid-period chamber masterpieces for soloist and string ensemble. Expanding the sonorities of the ‘Kreutzer’ Sonata – Beethoven’s most important chamber work for violin – allows the sonata’s concertante quality to emerge in a new light. The Cello Sonata No. 3 equally succeeds in conceiving the piano part for ensemble, while exploring fullness of sound and maintaining transparency of texture.

Beethoven’s anniversary is an excellent opportunity to discover new aspects of this great genius. With passionate eagerness, the young musicians of the LGT Young Soloists have set out to express the freshness and vivacity that is inherent to Beethoven’s music. The spotlight is on two key works of Beethoven’s chamber music, two virtuoso sonatas from his fertile middle period: Peter Struck has newly arranged Beethoven’s famous ‘Kreutzer’ Sonata, Op. 47, and the wonderfully melodious Cello Sonata, Op. 69, for us – in each case for a solo instrument and string orchestra. When the young musicians from more than 15 countries played these new versions, the resulting chromatic opulence and common striving of the ensemble inspired us all: ‘Beethoven Recomposed’. We are sure that this would have met with the great maestro’s approval, and our wish is that this music, to quote Beethoven, ‘may go from heart to heart!’ (Alexander Gilman)
