Largo. A quiet thought is passed on from voice to voice. The music holds its breath in the hesitant preludes, which are only released late - as if the four violins are listening to a feeling that can only be expressed slowly.

Telemann's concerti for 4 violins are at the heart of the program, which is tailored to the wonderful space of the Stiftskirche Baumgartenberg.

Music by Johann Joseph Fux, Witold Lutosławski, Richard Rudolf Klein, Joseph Bodin de Boismortier and Georg Philipp Telemann
