Czech Chamber Music Society • Jan Fišer

This year, the Czech Chamber Music Society opens its concerts in Dvořák Hall with Beethoven’s violin sonatas—and Series R is no exception. His last three sonatas will conclude their complete presentation at our first early evening recital. At the centre of the programme is Beethoven’s famed Kreutzer Sonata, a complex work that inspired both Tolstoy and Leoš Janáček. The performers will be concertmaster Jan Fišer and Martin Kasík.
