We would like to inform our audience that according to the government decision effective from 11 November 2020, no public events can be held, so we are unable to hold concerts at the Liszt Academy with an audience. However, our audience will not be left without a concert experience, as most of our performances will be held and broadcast online in our Digital Concert Hall, and most of the concerts of the orchestras organizing concert series at the Liszt Academy will also be available online.

Dvořák: Piano Trio No. 4 in E minor, Op. 90 (‘Dumky’)

It is no exaggeration to say that during this chamber recital young musicians act as guides to three completely different worlds since the three works on the programme all evince very divergent styles, and the dates of the piano trios all fall in different centuries. Yet the pieces are still connected by the fact that each of the musical means displays a national character. Haydn's sparkling closing movement of his classical trio composed in London develops Hungarian, military recruitment dance (verbunkos) themes, while Piazzolla’s passionate and immersive piece commemorates Argentina’s cultural symbol, the tango. In the closing number of the concert Dvořák evokes a lament of Ukrainian origin (dumka), which as a melancholic instrumental piece came to be a musical embodiment of pan-Slavism in the second half of the 19th century. Mussorgsky, Tchaikovsky, Moniuszko and Janáček all composed dumkas, but the best-known and most popular piece in the genre is probably Dvořák's Dumky trio interpreted in a special form at this evening concert.
