Yvonne Smeulers (violin), Sander Sittig (piano) Cesar Franck, Sonate in A

September 30, 2008 at 6:40 PM

Yvonne Smeulers (violin) asked me if I could upload this recording of her on Youtube of the well known Cesar Franck Sonate in A movements 3 and 4. It is on a sundaymorning 21 september in the canteen of the Concertgebouw, Amsterdam, at 10 o'clock. More unknown musicians play there before the morningconcert in the Big Hall of the Concertgebouw which is from 1.00-12.00 o'clock. Later that week she played as I wrote before in the small Hall of the Concertgebouw. I had no idea how to do that, but a computerfreakcollegae helped me. Yvonne had a cold, but she said that she did not had to sing.
