Tasmin said:

“Tonight’s concert is a very exciting one for me – it will be the first time that I have ever performed all three of the great sonatas for violin and piano written by one of my favourite composers: Brahms.” She explains; “although I have played each of these works for many years, I have up until now shied away from doing them all on the same night! But each of these pieces is so different from the other that I feel the programme works beautifully as a whole.”

Programme:
Brahms Sonata No. 2 in A major
Brahms Sonata No. 1 in G major
Brahms Sonatensatz
Brahms Sonata No. 3 in D minor
