Allegro moderato 47:06 II. Adagio 50:54 III. Allegretto ABOUT THE ARPEGGIONE AND THE FIVE-STRING CELLO Schubert’s Sonata D. 821 was written in 1824 for the arpeggione, an instrument developed just the year before. It was a six-stringed, fretted instrument similar to a bass viola da gamba, tuned like the guitar and played with a bow. The instrument soon went out of favor; hence Schubert’s sonata is usually performed on the cello or viola. In this performance, the sonata will be performed on a five-string cello, also known as violoncello piccolo. This instrument was possibly the five-string instrument that J. S. Bach called for in his Cello Suite No. 6 in D Major with a top E string, similar to the arpeggione. With a wider range thanks to the additional string, the five-string cello is one answer to the common awkwardness of performing this piece on a four-string cello or viola, which otherwise requires frequent shifting and other technical adjustments. *******************Join us for a ZOOM reception after the premiere! ***************** Spend time with Sonia, Ka-Wai and Curtis to answer your questions and discuss the performance.
