Nightingale Gallery: Intimate Worlds

7pm, 14th August

Join us for an intimate evening of exceptional chamber music at this beautiful art gallery, where music and visual art come together.

The program features three remarkable works spanning the Romantic tradition and beyond. The concert opens with Beethoven’s Sonata for Piano and Cello No. 4, a work of elegance, wit, and profound lyricism that showcases the equal partnership between cello and piano. This is followed by the Mahler Piano Quartet, an extraordinary early composition that offers a fascinating glimpse into the emerging voice of one of music’s greatest symphonists. The evening culminates with the Schumann Piano Quartet, a beloved chamber masterpiece celebrated for its warmth, expressive depth, and exuberant finale.

Set within the inspiring surroundings of a contemporary art gallery, this performance invites audiences to experience these timeless works in an intimate setting where every musical detail can be appreciated up close.
