On this occasion, just like in our concert two years ago, another few gems of German romanticism will be performed in the Pesti Vigadó. The programme of the evening has been deliberately structured to gradually deepen the musical experience, from the unaccompanied motet to the more grandiose, apparatus-enriched works. The peak of the programme will be Mendelssohn’s Psalm 42, which is rarely heard in Hungary and is clearly one of the master’s most significant works. The programme presents the gems of German Romanticism as a coherent whole, demonstrating how their sophistication and emotional richness give eternal value to these masterpieces.
