About the concert

The conclusion of the spring part of the festival will belong to the Pavel Bořkovec Quartet, which will perform in the industrial setting of the Coal Mill in Libčice nad Vltavou. The program will combine the poetics of French impressionism in the form of Maurice Ravel's string quartet with purely Czech modernism through E. F. Burian's quartet, culminating in Erich Wolfgang Korngold's expressive sextet.

Transportation to the venue will be provided by a specially arranged train with an accompanying program.
