The concert opens with Haydn’s radiant String Quartet in D major showcasing his signature elegance and wit. At the heart of the programme is the world premiere of Canaima, a vivid new work by Montero inspired by the majestic landscapes and ecological fragility of Venezuela’s Canaima National Park. The evening concludes with Dvořák’s much-loved Piano Quintet No 2 a Romantic-era gem filled with soaring melodies, folk rhythms, and spirited interplay between piano and strings.
