Purcell & Friends
Join us for the second evening of VOLTA Kammermusikfest, where 9 musicians perform an array of chamber works from Purcell to sought-after composer Olli Mustonen. The evening promises to be an inspiring journey with some of Basel's most exciting up-and-coming young musicians.
Starting with the expansive and generous Strauss sextet and venturing into the sound worlds of Thomas Demenga, Purcell, Britten and Olli Mustonen, there is something for everyone in this varied and fun programme:
Strauss: String Sextet, from Capriccio op. 85
Thomas Demenga: ‘Duo? o, Du…’
Purcell: Fantasias in 4 parts: IX Fantasia in A minor, Z.740
Britten: Three Divertimenti for String Quartet
Purcell: The History of Timon of Athens, Z.632: Curtain Tune on a Ground
Olli Mustonen: Nonetto II
