Ragazze Quartet & Thomas Beijer | The Wrong Way - Pint, Patatje, Prokofiev

That Dmitri Shostakovich encouraged composer Sofia Gubaidulina to follow "the wrong path" were words that kept her going during turbulent times. Shostakovich himself also deliberately sought a dangerous route in his compositions by commenting on the regime. Ragazze Quartet performs Shostakovich's poignant piano quintet with Dutch Music Prize winner Thomas Beijer. This piano quintet is combined with Prokofiev's fiery second string quartet and Gubaidulina's abrasive second string quartet. Three highlights of 20th-century string quartet literature.

Pint, Patty, Prokofiev

Four times Prokofiev, in different jackets and performed by top international musicians. Sergei Prokofiev is known as one of the greatest composers of the 20th century. With his fresh, revolutionary style, he broke with romantic tradition and created a wonderful, fairy-tale world. That world is continued by several musicians, including Duo Milstein, Nino Gvetadze, the Ragazze Quartet and Thomas Beijer. Prior to the concerts in the St. Aegten Chapel, you can enjoy at the bar with specially selected beer from City Brewery De Drie Ringen and fries. The Pintje, Patatje, Prokofjev series is a collaboration of Flint, September Me, music festival for explorers and drifters, and City Brewery De Drie Ringen. The artistic director of the Ragazze Quartet put together the September Me program.
