Wednesday’s concert in the Cultural Centre PRÁDELNA will create a unique fusion of the unusual and extraordinary. It will incorporate fabulous Slovak musicians from the Mucha Quartet with Vladimír Kulíšek, who has speechlessly dazzled audiences in Europe, Asia and America. The concert’s program focuses on music from the 20th century, including Bolero by Maurice Ravel, adapted for the string quartet and String Quartet No. 1 based on the Kreutzer Sonata by Leoš Janáček. This will be complemented by two compositions from contemporary composers – Panadol for the string quartet and laptop by the Slovak composer Martin Burlas, and Clouded Yellow by Michael Gordon.
