Summery diversion with Beethoven’s Pastorale and a new work by Ülo Krigul
Today, Beethoven’s Pastoral sounds like a postcard from a carefree past. Who could fail to be cheered by so much summery diversion? The German violist Nils Mönkemeyer performs a seldom-heard treasure. In his Concerto the English composer William Walton switches between swagger and sadness, dream and action. The Estonian composer Ülo Krigul writes a new work that oscillates between Beethoven’s blue sky and Walton’s wistful clouds.
