Pay What You Decide Concert

Folk Tales from Eastern Europe

A spellbinding concert featuring violin, accordion and cello, where classical virtuosity meets the wild pulse of Eastern Europe’s folk traditions. Expect the fiery fiddling of Ravel’s Tzigane, the whirlwind dances of Brahms and Monti, and the earthy vitality of Bulgarian, Romanian and Bohemian melodies.

This programme celebrates the deep roots and vivid colours of a shared musical heritage. With its cinematic sound world and intricate textures, the ensemble evokes the spirit of musicians playing around fires, in cafés and village taverns – where every note seems to rise from the heart of
the forest itself.
