Spring Sonata

Spring Sonata

Sophie Rosa (violin)

Martin Roscoe (piano)

The first instalment in a day of music bidding farewell to winter and ushering in spring. This lunchtime recital pairs two of the most beloved works in the violin repertoire, closing with the virtuosic wedding bells of Franck’s sonata. Martin Roscoe is one of the UK’s best-loved and most prolific pianists; to perform this glorious, sunny music he is joined by another outstanding musician also hailing from the North of England, violinist Sophie Rosa.
