Mahan Esfahani | Czech Chamber Music Society 13.1.
Between his performances of The Well-Tempered Clavier, curator Mahan Esfahani will make room to honour his reputation as a bold musical explorer. In a thoughtfully assembled programme, he brings together Czech and international works of the 20th century—paying tribute to Viktor Kalabis and shining a light on the inventive, though lesser-known, Henry Cowell. The evening’s climax will be Falla’s concerto, interpreted by some of the Czech Republic’s finest musicians.
