Miguez Violin Sonata in A Major, Op.14
Brahms Violin Sonata No. 2 in A Major, Op. 100

Young Artist Spotlight Concert

Recently awarded the Grand Prize of both the Concert Artist Guild and Young Classical Artist Trust (YCAT) competitions, Brazilian violinist Nathan Amaral has also been collecting First and Special Prizes from plenty of other international competitions as well as being named one of Classic FM’s Rising stars under 30. Texas-born pianist Jonathan Ware is a previous YCAT winner who has also been collecting prizes across the globe.

Brazilian composer Leopoldo Miguez’s Violin Sonata in A major, Op. 14, written in 1885, offers lyrical richness while balancing evocative, nocturnal beauty and a Kreisler-like sweetness, and is the very definition of a forgotten gem to be rediscovered (or newly discovered for many), while Brahms’s Sonata is most certainly a favourite treasure.
