Beethoven’s Pastorale today sounds like a postcard from a carefree past. Who doesn’t get a smile on their face when hearing so much summer diversion? The German violist Nils Mönkemeyer brings us a rarely heard treasure. The English composer William Walton switches in his concerto between courage and nostalgia, dream and reality. The Estionian composer Ülo Krigul writes a new piece that steers between Beethoven’s blue sky and Walton’s melancholic clouds.
