Pianist Mathieu Gaudet and violinist Mark Fewer come together for a captivating program that spans two centuries of musical brilliance. With a deep connection to Beethoven’s "Spring Sonata," Gaudet and Fewer infuse it with a lively vibrancy, intertwining lyrical beauty with dynamic energy. Canadian composer Chris Paul Harman’s "After Clementi" offers a bold, contemporary reimagining of classical forms, pushing boundaries and exploring new textures, and George Enescu’s "Romanian Folk Style Sonata" weaves evocative melodies and intricate harmonies, immersing listeners in the rich landscape of Eastern European folk traditions. The program includes the world premiere of Mathieu Gaudet’s “Prelude, Ballad and Dance,” featuring a contrapuntal Prelude, a Ballad inspired by Newfoundland folk music, and an energetic Dance. A Juno Award-winner, Fewer brings expressive depth and fearless versatility to every performance, while Gaudet's nuanced playing adds clarity and warmth. Known for his extensive repertoire and innovative artistry, Gaudet’s performance is complemented by Fewer’s genre-defying violin mastery, with over 200 works premiered throughout his career. Together, they deliver a performance that celebrates the fusion of tradition and innovation, blending virtuosity, emotion, and creativity in a truly dynamic experience.
