On the stage of Teatro Niccolini on 23 February at 8:30 pm, Xenia Next Generation Series arrives— a musical encounter dedicated to the new generation of chamber music.
A group of outstanding young performers, selected from the Xenia International Chamber Music Course, perform and discuss two masterpieces of the chamber repertoire, guided by violinist Daniel Roberts and Igor Polesitsky.
Not a concert in the traditional sense, but an intimate listening experience and a dialogue with the audience, offering insight into the inner workings of chamber music and the relationship between voices, balance, and shared breathing.
The program places two fundamental works side by side: Joseph Haydn’s String Quartet Op. 20 No. 2 and Johannes Brahms’s Quintet Op. 111.
Musical guidance and dialogue with the audience:
Daniel Roberts and Igor Polesitsky
