Who knew that Beethoven wrote some works for mandolin and piano? Who knew that Paganini was also a brilliant guitarist? And who knew that Angela Hewitt played the fortepiano? Tonight’s programme gives you a chance to hear all those things, and also introduces three distinguished soloists to the Trasimeno Music Festival for the first time. Exciting!

There will be no interval.

Pre-concert talk with Eric Friesen and the artists at 8 p.m.
