Tim Burton's favourite composer - NOSPR

Open sales on September 2.

It promises to be a remarkable expedition in directions not obvious for chamber music. Spanish music enjoyed a heyday of national style at the turn of the 20th century. We are familiar in Poland with works by de Falla, Albéniz or Granados from this repertoire. Turina, on the other hand, is mainly associated with guitar music lovers. In the mellifluous Piano Quartet op. 67, he combines catchy Spanish themes with classical form, characteristic simplicity and serenity.  

The music of the eminent Latvian composer Pēteris Vasks is characterised by a meditative tone famous in this part of Europe. His Piano Quartet will unite lovers of classical harmonies with those seeking more contemporary forms of expression. Danny Elfman's quartet, meanwhile, will add to this concert the eclectic spirit of Hollywood, where the composer, acclaimed for his soundtracks for films by Tim Burton (Batman, Edward Scissorhands, Alice in Wonderland), Gus Van Sant (Milk) or the Simpsons series, is well known.
