Sergei Prokofiev: Five Melodies for Violin and Piano, Op. 35 bis
Dmitri Shostakovich: Sonata for Violin and Piano, Op. 134
Louis Vierne: Piano Quintet in C minor, Op. 42

This program juxtaposes the Sonata for Violin and Piano by Dmitri Shostakovich with the Piano Quintet by Louis Vierne. These works demonstrate how the composers communicated their hardships though their music. We explore how music communicates light in a dark world.
