The Chamber Hall (Sala de Cámara) at the National Music Auditorium is hosting a recital featuring two great French performers, the pianist Cédric Tiberghien and the violist Antoine Tamestit on 29 March. This concert forms part of the 21st Chamber Lyceum concert series, where works by great composers such as Schubert, Schumann or Britten can be heard.

In this latest event of the concert series, the two French performers will provide the audience with a passionate review of pieces created especially for the viola and piano or transcribed from their original versions. 

The programme kicks off with one of Schubert’s major scores and is rounded off with a masterpiece by the Anglo-American composer Rebecca Clarke, who was a violist, like Paul Hindemith, and is part of the repertoire with her Sonata, Op. 11.

The programme includes the performance of two British works separated by three and a half centuries, which bring together Dowland’s Renaissance with Benjamin Britten’s modernism.
