Viennese Legacy concert series span a two-year period, celebrating the contributions of illustrious composers to the chamber music repertoire. These composers from Vienna were pioneers in Romanticism and their compositions gained huge popularity in France in the 19th century. Mozart visited and performed in Paris when he was a prodigy. But Beethoven and Schubert were only well-recognised some years after their death. This opening concert of the series pays tribute to these great composers for their musical influence in France.
