iSonatas In Violin Recital
Eugene Jacobowsky, assistant
professor of violin, will present a
recital Monday, October 5, at 8:30
p.m., featuring sonatas by Beeth
oven, Poulenc, and Block.
Mr. Jacobowsky will open the
program with Beethoven’s sonata
for violin and piano. Op. 30, no. 2.
An interesting feature of the sonata
is the canon in the trio section of
the third movement. In contrast
to the tendency of Barogue and
Classical composers to attempt long,
long phrases, Beethoven experi
ments with short motives in this
four movement work.
After intermission, Mr. Jacobow
sky will play a sonata by the
French composer Poulenc, dedi
cated to Garcin Lorca, the Spanish
poet. Lorca, who sang ballads and
accompanied himself on the guitar,
:||ame to the United States during
the Spanish Civil War. He lived
in New York and wrote lyric poetry
about his native Spain. Shortly
after he returned to Spain, Lorca
•Svas assassinated, and Poulenc wrote
this sonata in his memory. Like
many of Poulenc’s compositions,
this work reflects “La Gaite Paris-
ienne” and reveals the composer’s
sense of humor.
The final work of the program
will be the second of the two sona
tas written by Ernest Block. The
first sonata reflects the unhappy
