This evening brings a much-anticipated premiere: the first encounter between Isabelle Faust and Adam Fischer – a musical summit that dispenses entirely with classical music and Mahler, yet captivates from the very first note. Together, the two invite you to an evening dedicated entirely to the dazzling soul of Hungary. Béla Bartók's Second Violin Concerto is a fascinating expression of existential struggle, in which anger, melancholy, but also deep love of one's homeland can be felt. Isabelle Faust plays the piece with an intensity as if she had shared the last glass with Bartók himself on the evening before his escape from Budapest.
