Sobre el programa...
Award-winning Siberian cellist Denis Zhdanov works with Dmitry Silvian on the first movement of Schubert's Sonata in A Minor, D. 821 "Arpeggione" in a master class at the Villa Sandra Lesa.
Schubert composed the Sonata in A Minor, D. 821 for his friend Vincenz Schuster, a virtuoso on the arpeggione, a six-stringed, fretted instrument tuned like a guitar but bowed like a cello that had been invented in the early 1820s. While the instrument soon passed out of fashion, Schubert's sonata was quickly transcribed for cello, becoming part of cellists' standard repertoire.
