TECHNOPOLIS 20 PAFOS - CHAMBER MUSIC CONCERTS.

CHAMBER MUSIC CONCERTS
with musicians of the Cyprus Symphony Orchestra
What greater delight could a chamber music lover wish for, other than Mozart and
Brahms works for the uncommon genre of string quintet on Sunday, January 24,
2016 at Technopolis 20 in Pafos, at 5pm, composed at the peak of the two
composers’ musical maturity? The C major Quintet K. 515 (1787), one of the four
string quintets that Mozart wrote during the last years of his life, is a sublime,
breathtaking work with depth and drama. Brahms’ G major string quintet op. 111
(1890) is an ebullient work characterised by an equally amazing broadness of
conception. As Brahms’ friend Theodor Billroth aptly expressed after listening to it: “I
have often reflected on the subject of what happiness is for humanity. Well, today, in
listening to your music, that was happiness.”
