An Evening of Duets for Connoisseurs and Newcomers—Beethoven in the Castle Hall: An Autumn Evening Blending Excitement and Elegance
When the warm, golden light of a Mecklenburg autumn enchants the park of Kölzow Castle, an exquisite concert evening as part of the “Schlösserherbst” invites you to linger in this atmospheric setting. Featuring cellist Margreta Häfer and pianist Yoko Kuwahara, this well-rehearsed duo brings subtle chamber music—full of passion and the utmost precision—to the historic castle. The program centers on Beethoven’s timeless brilliance, while the other masterpieces accompanying his works will remain a well-kept secret until the concert begins.
Only once you arrive will a charming introduction and the printed program reveal the musical journey of discovery:
It leads from the surging, late-Romantic splendor from across the ocean, through the dancing energy of Eastern European rhythms, to the impressionistic grace of Paris and the expressive passion of German Romanticism. An evening of consummate musical artistry that perfectly combines curiosity with the pure joy of discovering music.
The program features works by Ludwig van Beethoven (1770–1827), Amy Beach (1867–1944), and Nadia Boulanger (1887–1979), Béla Bartók (1881–1945), *Romanian Folk Dances*, and Luise Adolpha Le Beau (1850–1927), *
*. Following the concert, light refreshments and a beverage of your choice will be served.
