The Spirit of 1956, with Dal Sogno Chamber Music Ensemble

In honor of the Hungarian Uprising on October 23, 1956, Dal Sogno Ensemble will perform music that resonates with counter-oppresive movements and thematic to revolutionary spirit. Central and Eastern European composers featured in this emotional and gallant concert will include:

- Haydn (Austria/Hungary)

- Kodály (Hungary)

- Yury Falik (USSR)

- Kurtág (Hungary)

- Weinberg (Poland)

- Hummel (Austria/Hungary)

Dal Sogno is our Ensemble-In-Residence, composed of well recognized and esteemed classical musicians who are devoted to performing works from the traditional and non-traditional canon of chamber music by persecuted, marginalized and overlooked composers who have dreamt of their music being heard.

Performances of these works give a contextual view of the times in which these composers lived, often omitted from the standard narrative of history. The Dal Sogno Ensemble is committed to bringing new and updated perspectives on classical music through their performances. 

Our carefully curated concerts include a mixture of traditional, modern, electronic and eclectic styles. This allows us to introduce our audiences to newly discovered and diverse music while entertaining and sharing the joy of our collaboration.
