Belcea Quartet and Till Fellner A Zeneakadémia saját szervezésű programja

The last 20 years have been a real success story for the quartet of Romania-born violinist Corina Belcea. In 1994, students of the London Royal College of Music decided to form a string quartet; six years later they were playing at Carnegie Hall, New York, and for five years they were resident quartet at the Wigmore Hall; influential British music journal Gramophone selected their very first recording as Album of the Year. Since then they have released another 11 discs, including the complete string quartets of Bartók and Beethoven, and it certainly appears that a new benchmark has been created with their performances comparable – in their clarity – to the greatest string quartets. They are joined in this recital by Till Fellner, regular chamber partner of two world-famous artists, cellist Heinrich Schiff and tenor Mark Padmore, and a person who has gifted audiences with many fine moments through his concerts and recordings of Romantic, Viennese classic and 20th century works. Courtesy of this magnificent Austrian pianist and foremost quartet, we can enjoy one of the most moving chamber music works for piano in the dignified surroundings of the Liszt Academy in what promises to be a rare and exciting performance.
