Beethoven: Complete Sonatas for Piano and Cello

Setting the stage for our Fiftieth Anniversary Season, Artistic Directors Dmitri Atapine and Hyeyeon Park will present a marathon performance of Beethoven’s complete sonatas for piano and cello. The duo sonata lies at the heart of chamber music — a deeply personal dialogue between two musicians, rich with nuance, trust, and expression. These five sonatas trace the full arc of Beethoven’s life and, at the same time, mirror our own journey: five decades of sharing the joy of chamber music with Kansas City.
