LSO St Luke's: Basically Beethoven (2/4)

Cellist Andrei Ioniță and pianist Luka Okros pair Beethoven with music by Schumann, recorded at LSO St Luke's and presented by Hannah French.

Hannah French presents the second of this weeks Lunchtime Concert in the Basically Beethoven series, recorded at LSO St Luke's in London last month.

Andrei Ioniță is one of the world’s most admired cellists of his generation, and today he partners with pianist Luka Okros to play music inspired by the radical imagination of Beethoven, opening with his Seven Variations on ‘Bei Männern, welche Liebe fühlen’, and ending with the sublimely lyrical Sonata No 3 in A major.

Sandwiched between these two works is Schumann's Five Pieces in Folk Style.
