Pohadka: Works By Martinu, Schumann, Janacek

It is not written words, but narrative sound worlds that allow the listener to dive into the composer's fantastic world. Like no other, Leos Janacek understood how to bring a fairy tale (Pohadka) to life in a sound-painting manner. Robert Schumann's musical fairy tale pictures provide deep insights into his soul life. Martinu's highly dramatic first cello sonata and the dreamlike "Waldesruh" by Anton Dvorak complete the program. Cellist Mathias Johansen and pianist Andreas Hering take you on a fairy-tale journey of sound.
