Berneck and its beauties
Inspiratio Quintet went on its first concert abroad, to the Swiss town of Berneck. In cooperation with the Kultur Forum Berneck, the Inspiratio Wind Quintet performed works by Czech and foreign composers on Friday 22 September 2023.
The motto of the concert was "A musical journey through time - from J. Ch. Bach, around A. Dvořák to J. Ibert.
The concert and a visit to the surrounding area
Before the evening concert in the Evangelical Church in Berneck, Inspiratio went on a trip to the neighbouring town of St. Gallen. Here, even in slightly rainy weather, they explored the important parts of the city and in the afternoon they were already quietly preparing for the busy evening programme.
The concert was attended by over 100 Swiss listeners, who rewarded the instrumentalists with thunderous applause, which resulted in a total of 2 encores.
A review of the concert was published a few days later and you can find it below!
