For the composer's 200th birthday

Our 2023 Open Call for young piano trios has revealed many names. This certainly applies to the ensemble of this concert: the Trio Bohémo is conquering the European music scene. In Bern they are offering the audience a Czech music evening where we will honor the romantic composer Bedřich Smetana (1824-1884) on the occasion of his 200th birthday and explore new facets of Eastern European music. On this evening, the Hotel Jardin will transform into a true concert hall with a rich atmosphere for top-class classical music.
