MOZART & MYSTICS

9.6.2026 @ 19:00 - 21:00

W. A. Mozart, the eternal child prodigy and irrepressible rascal, also knew how to strike the most sensitive chords of the human mind when needed. While the famous Larghetto of the Clarinet Quintet still smiles shyly through tears, the String Quintet burrows toward the deepest layers of the soul. In the words of Pyotr Tchaikovsky: “No one else has been able to convey in music such touching, resigned, and desolate sorrow.”

The Argentine composer Osvaldo Golijov uses klezmer and tango to create an echo chamber for existential questions. The Dreams and Prayers of Isaac the Blind is a fascinating musical narrative about the French mystic rabbi whose writings became central teachings of Kabbalah. In Croce is a key work by Sofia Gubaidulina, who passed away in 2025. In the duo for cello and accordion, the earthly and the heavenly intersect on a journey toward a higher level of spirituality.
