Weekend at Woolmers: Light and Shadow

Dvořák’s Terzetto in C major (1887) was written to be played by the composer and two friends who lived in the same Prague building. Intimate and personal yet sophisticated, it blends simple melodies with rich chamber textures.

Shostakovich’s Piano Quintet in G minor (1940), written for the Beethoven Quartet, won the Stalin Prize in 1941. Balancing grandeur and introspection, it fuses Baroque echoes with modern sharpness, reflecting both historical turmoil and the composer’s deeply personal voice.
