The closing concert of the International Shostakovich Days 2025 is a festive highlight of the festival.
The final concert presents an impressive juxtaposition of two masterpieces of the chamber music tradition. The Quatuor Danel, consisting of Marc Danel, Gilles Millet, Vlad Bogdanas and Yovan Markovitch, interprets Beethoven's late expression in String Quartet No. 15, which is known for its profound emotionality.
Shostakovich's last String Quartet No. 15 follows, which is regarded as his artistic legacy and has a dense, sometimes sombre sound language. This program underlines the artistic affinity between the two composers and offers the audience a deep insight into the development of chamber music in the 20th century.
