Program notes

Every year, the Verbier Festival brings together the world’s greatest artists and the rising stars of classical music in exceptional concerts. Experience this concert from the 20th Verbier Festival, a thrilling musical evening of Romantic chamber music.

An inheritor of German Romanticism, Dvorák’s compositions draw on a rich diversity of influences. The composer never sought to revolutionize his musical surroundings. Weaving Slavic folk melodies into Western-style symphonic and chamber music, he nonetheless created a modern Czech classic music, a new style realized in the composer’s Quintet for Piano and Strings, performed in this stunning Verbier Festival rendition. A not-to-be-missed evening featuring Renaud and Gautier Capuçon, Yuri Bashmet, Vilde Frang, and Daniil Trifonov all on one stage!
