Intimate Letters

Prelude Perfromance by Balourdet String Quartet · 6:30 PM

Part of

SummerFest

Spend an intimate evening with two masterpieces: Janáček’s String Quartet, which reflects his deep feelings for a woman with whom he exchanged more than 700 love letters, and Franck’s intensely passionate Piano Quintet, which —according to the furious composer’s wife— was a declaration of love to his pupil.
