From My Homeland concert 3

18th November 2023 @ 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm

Johannes Brahms (1833-97)     Piano Trio No. 3 in C minor Op. 101

 

Janáček’s magical Pohádka explores a world of princesses and monsters, while Suk’s 4 Pieces are rich with untold stories. Even the scherzo of Brahms’s Trio was once described as hurrying ‘like a frightened child.’

    The regions of Bohemia and Moravia endured political, military and linguistic control by multiple nations and governments in the 19th and 20th centuries. ‘From My Homeland’ showcases some of the most vibrant, imaginative and unusual works written in the 1800s and 1900s, as well as music by Johannes Brahms – friend and champion of Antonín Dvořák.

    The series (October 2023 to March 2024) also includes a day of concerts, films and talks dedicated to the victims of the Theresienstadt Concentration Camp between 1941-45.
