Rod's Ramblings

Harmonious Histories - Sonatas, Concertos, Symphonies. What's the Difference?

Rod Collett Season 3 Episode 5

In this latest episode in the Harmonious Histories series we answer the question, 'What is the difference between a Sonata, a Concerto and a Symphony?'  We also include a bit of history along the way.  We discuss Beethoven's 'Moonlight Sonata', Vivaldi's 'Four Seasons' and The Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment.  Music tracks are Brahms' Violin Sonata in D minor Op 108 and Concerto for Flute and Orchestra by Cercles Nouvelles.  Theme music is 'Late Night Ramble' by River Run Dry.  All music provided by Epidemic Sound.
