On 23 November at 7.00 pm, the Celetná Salon concert series continues with a piano recital featuring a programme full of colourful musical images and moods.

A recital by Bohumil Bondarenko and Daniel Matejči at the Celetná Salon
Following the summer concert hiatus, we will open the new season on 22 September at 7.00 pm in the Celetná Salon with a concert dedicated to two brilliant young musicians – violist Bohumil Bondarenko and violinist Daniel Matejč. Although both are recent graduates of HAMU, they are already in high demand as performers. Both artists will first perform as soloists alongside pianist Alena Grešlová, before joining forces in the second half of the concert to perform pieces for violin and viola.
The evening will open with Johannes Brahms’ Sonata in F minor, Op. 120 No. 1, for viola and piano, followed by Béla Bartók’s Rhapsody No. 1, Sz. 87, for violin and piano. The second half of the concert will feature chamber music for violin and viola – Bohuslav Martinů’s Three Madrigals, H. 313, and Johan Halvorsen’s virtuosic Passacaglia in G minor, based on a motif from a composition by Handel.
