About this concert
Gabriel Schwabe, winner of the 2009 Pierre Fournier Award, was lauded by The Strad for 'allowing the full force of contemporary instruments to hold sway in a dazzling performance, with virtuoso passages turned to perfection'. His programme balances an early sonata by Beethoven with late works by Britten and Prokofiev.
