Programme
Overview
Join violinist Alena Baeva and pianist Joseph Havlat for a daring lunchtime journey through Bartók’s fiery Violin Sonata, Prokofiev’s lyrical Melodies, and inventive takes on Szymanowski’s Kurpie folksongs and Tailleferre’s ballet score. Experience virtuosic flair, tonal richness and fresh interpretations in an unforgettable midday concert.In this lunchtime recital, violinist Alena Baeva and pianist Joseph Havlat invite listeners into a richly textured programme of early 20th-century works. Baeva’s tonal subtlety and virtuosic flair illuminate the dynamic contrasts of Bartók’s two-movement Violin Sonata No. 2 and the poetic elegance of Prokofiev’s Melodies. Havlat then offers fresh perspectives on Szymanowski’s folk-inspired Kurpie song arrangements and extracts from Germaine Tailleferre’s 1923 ballet Le marchand d’oiseaux, balancing rustic vitality with neoclassical refinement. Through vibrant rhythms, lyrical grace and unexpected harmonic colors, this midday concert promises an engaging artistic journey that reimagines the classic lunchtime recital tradition.
