Chamber Music Festival 2022: "Aimez-Vous Brahms..."

Chamber Music Festival 2022
End of Summer in Minoa Palace Resort
Aimez-Vous Brahms...

This year's festival, with the title "Do you like Brahms?" attempts to pay tribute to the chamber music of the great German Romantic. 

5 Concerts, each concert features a representative piece by Brahms, as well as works by a composer who influenced him (Schumann), by other composers that were his contemporaries (Liszt, Dvořâk) or who were influenced by him (Korngold, Respighi).

It is worth noting that for the first time a concert will be moved out of Minoa Palace Resort, at the exceptional archaeological site of Aptera, where the final concert of the Festival will take place.
