The solo cello concert accompanies Elisabeth Kihlström’s architectural intervention in Tuning, in another form of bodily negotiation and structural resistance. Gaspar Cassadó’s Suite for Solo Cello (1926) draws on the rhythmic vitality of Spanish dance, marked by sudden contrasts and expressive breadth. J.S. Bach’s Suite No. 6 in D Major (BWV 1012), written for the now-rare five-string violoncello piccolo, extends the instrument’s range to produce a luminous resonance with formal complexity and architectural clarity. Join us on 7 August for this guided journey through movement and form in sound.

Bence Temesvári is the Assistant Principal Cello of the Vienna Symphony Orchestra.

Limited capacity, free admission, RSVP required.

Doors open at 19:00; concert starts at 19:30.
