About ÖRZSE ADAM

The yearly returning Hortus Festival takes place of the 4 marvellous botanical gardens of The Netherlands, Leiden, Utrecht, Amsterdam and Haren. The WTC lunch concert on Aug 25^th is a ‘sneak preview’ of the closing/final Hortus concerts performed by the Hortus Ensemble.
This romantic program will be performed on historical instrumentarium 1880-1900, featuring a trio movement from Schumann and a magnificent piece by Chausson: Concert for Violin, Piano and String Quartet, the only work for this combination with wonderful melodic and harmonic abiities. It was dedicated to Chausson’s friend, the brilliant Belgian violinist and composer Eugène Ysaÿe who premiered it in Brussels in 1892.

“Shades of Voices”
This WTC Lunch Concert features a very unusual and romantic ensemble formation, a trio comprised by Soprano, Viola and Piano. This unique combination is most renowned because of the Two Songs Op.91 by Johannes Brahms. The timbre of the viola adds an intriguing color to the soprano voice: while blending into it beautifully, giving also an interesting contrast to it. This unusual instrument combination and color inspired around 190O other composers as well. The concert program will include trio’s from Loeffler, Panseron and some folk songs by Granados and Bartók.

Young-Hee Kim – soprano

Örzse Adam – viola
