Programme

Classical music sometimes seems, by its very name, to exclude the possibility of having fun and truly relaxing. But that couldn’t be further from the truth. In recent years, the trend has been clear—greater openness towards audiences and other musical genres. Exaggeration, musical wit, and inspiration drawn from everyday sounds are the foundations of a new concert series, No Tie. This series embraces freedom—not just in dress code, but above all in music itself. It will reveal how Antonín Dvořák continues to inspire new musical worlds. Mozart’s playfulness pairs effortlessly with the rhythms of Cuban mambo. Two cellos will embark on unexpected musical journeys, and top musicians—primarily from the world of “serious” music—will find common ground with their guests from jazz and other genres. Their inspiration? Beethoven and Dvořák, but also Sting and Freddie Mercury. One thing unites all these concerts: exceptional professionalism, supreme creativity, and a spirit of invention that challenges performers to push the very limits of their instrumental mastery.
