From the Homeland – grand finale
The inspiration for this year’s Islington Festival of Music and Art is the Homeland, what it means, how it is celebrated. Looking through composers’ relationships with their roots, how they take inspiration from them, either by going straight to the source, or by nostalgically diving in to their distant but strong memories.
An obvious place to start was Czech composers and we are finishing the festival with a programme entirely of Czech music.
VITĚZSLAVA KAPRÁLOVÁ – String Quartet, opus 8
LEOŠ JANÁČEK – Pohádka/A Fairytale for cello and piano
ANTONÍN DVOŘÁK – String Quartet no. 11 in C opus 61
