Beethoven: Septet in E flat, Op. 20

Beethoven Septet in E flat, Op. 20. “A violinist, a violist, a cellist, a bassist, a horn player, a bassoonist, and a clarinetist walk into a winery...” So begins the old joke about the Beethoven Septet. Just kidding, we’ll be writing this joke on the fly. After all, this is one of Beethoven’s most lighthearted works. Waters Winery sets the stage for this evening of music for the great outdoors. With views of rolling vineyards and a winery of stunning beauty, this evening will be a highlight of the 2010 Walla Walla Chamber Music Festival.
