As part of our commemoration of Bartók this season – the 80th anniversary of his death in 1945 – each of our Musica Viva concerts features a pivotal work. His Piano Sonata, String Quartet no. 3, String Quartet no. 5, and Music for Strings, Percussion and Celesta will all be performed by leading artists.
We invite you to join us for this exciting and unique celebration of a master of the 20th century, one whose works withstand all tests of time and highlight the importance of “home” as a defining stylistic concept.
The world renown Takács Quartet starts their Spring 2025 European tour with us. This is their first concert appearance in Plymouth and their programme for us is particularly evocative. We are thrilled to welcome them for this performance.
