Salon Concerts: "Mozart's spirit from Haydn's hands" 4/27

Experience the warmth, intimacy, and drama of chamber music recorded in the living room of the Rochester Academy of Medicine. Pianist Rebecca Penneys, cellist Stefan Reuss, violinist Mikhail Kopelman, and friends bring this music to life in this inviting living room of the historic Lyon house on East Avenue.

Ludwig van Beethoven just missed his chance to study with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, but his patron Count Waldstein assured the young Beethoven that when he returned to Vienna: "With the help of assiduous labor you will receive Mozart’s spirit from Haydn’s hands.”

In concerts from October 2023 and March 2024, hear piano trios by Mozart, Beethoven, and Franz Joseph Haydn.
