The concert will feature Prof. Lydie Härtelová, a distinguished Czech harpist and professor at the Prague Conservatory, together with her talented students. Violinist Lucie Troupová will join them as a special guest.
The programme combines enchanting solo harp pieces with works exploring the instrument’s expressive possibilities in chamber music. A highlight of the evening will be a movement from Foerster’s Violin Sonata performed with harp accompaniment.
