At the evening event held at the BMC, the audience will hear Bartók’s chamber works and folk song arrangements. Although the concert will feature several frequently performed masterpieces, the performing artists aim to make it special through their program curation and by highlighting the folk music sources of the compositions, with some songs even connecting to the folk symbolism of the upcoming summer solstice.
