About the event

Concert starts: 16:00


Mikhail Zemtsov & Friends present an extraordinary new chapter in the viola repertoire with their ongoing recording project dedicated to Johannes Brahms. Exploring the full expressive depth of Brahms’ chamber works as adapted for viola, the ensemble brings together rich tonal colors, refined musicianship, and an intimate understanding of the composer’s style. This is the presentation of the 2nd CD of Mikhail’s project which consist of recording of all the chamber music pieces with soloistic instrumental parts for which Brahms has made viola versions. The first CD released in September 2025 included the Horn trio (op. 40) and two Clarinet Sonatas (Op. 121). The motivation for this project has been commemorating the death of the composer (125 years in 2022) as well as his birth (190 years in 2023). We hope this recording would become a worthy addition the CD library of Brahms and viola lovers and would help to rediscover these masterpieces from a different perspective.
