2026-06-07,  Sunday — 17:00
  • We will have the opportunity to enjoy classical works from Hungary, Brazil, the Czech Republic, Poland, South Korea and the USA, emphasizing traditional dances and folk music!

    The concert will begin with Béla Bartók's "Romanian Folk Dances", followed by Heitor Villa-Lobos' duet for flute and cello "Assobio a Jato", parts of Erwin Schulhoff's violin sonata and a work for flute solo by Krzysztof Zgraja. After the intermission - Mieczysław Weinberg's preludes for cello, Han-Ki Kim's suite "Korean Simple Suite", and the program will be concluded by Edgaras Girtainas' trio for flute, violin and cello.

    "This colorful musical "fabric" intertwines not only European, but also Korean musical elements. Not all of the pieces will be familiar to the listeners, many of them are rarely performed, but all of them are extremely interesting and truly worth discovering," says Nahee Shin.

    The program will be performed by violinist Lija Netuk, flutist Polina Chistova, and cellist Nahee Shin. During the evening, the musicians will briefly introduce the pieces and composers being performed.
