Harmony across ages: Shostakovich & Dvorak’s evocative piano quintets.
The Mātātā Quintet join forces to present two monumental chamber works that encapsulate the distinct voices of their respective composers.
Shostakovich's Piano Quintet No. 2 is a gripping exploration of musical language, offering audiences a glimpse into the complexities of his personal and creative struggles composing against the backdrop of Stalinist repression. Dvořák's Piano Quintet No. 2, written in 1887, reflects the Czech composer's admiration for Bohemian folk music. Infused with rich melodies and rhythmic vitality, the work exudes a pastoral charm while maintaining Dvořák's masterful handling of classical forms.
