Rooted in the vibrant traditions of Central Europe, the concert begins with Zoltán Kodály’s Duo for Violin and Cello, Op. 7, a virtuosic exchange alive with folk rhythms and lyrical depth. Bohuslav Martinů’s Three Madrigals for Violin and Viola follows, its luminous textures and spirited counterpoint capturing both intimacy and exuberance. The evening concludes with Mendelssohn’s String Quartet No. 2 in A minor, Op. 13, a youthful yet profound masterwork where Romantic passion and Beethoven’s legacy converge in radiant form.
