#ClassicsaDay Classical1924 Week 3
For the first month of the new year, the Classics a Day team looks back a century. So the challenge for January 2024 is to post performances of classical works that were either composed, premiered, or first recorded in 1924.
Oliver Triendl Delivers With Karl Weigl Piano Concerto
Oliver Triendl performs to his usual high standards. His gestures are, well, big and bold.
Karl Weigl String Quartets pure Post-romantic goodness
The Thomas Christian Ensemble performs with sensitivity and beauty. They don’t shy away from Weigl’s dissonances while maintaining the expressive lyricism of the music. This is deeply personal music as the quartet’s intimate performances suggest.
We are grateful for the generosity of the Joseph and Robert Cornell Memorial Foundation and UVA Arts Council, supporting WTJU and CharlottesvilleClassical.org.
