Tomorrow’s prelude at Saint Stephens will be Beethoven’s Wo027 duet in C Major performed by Emily Sunderman (violin) and Gareth Cordery (cello). This composition was originally scored for Clarinet and Bassoon and published in 1810. There are a dozen arrangements for various instruments now on imslp. Some scholars dispute that Beethoven wrote the piece, but it is frequently performed and loved. As a child I loved hearing the arrangement for violin and viola frequently played by my sister and father.
