Boris Giltburg joins the Pavel Haas Quartet for a concert of Eastern European chamber music featuring Dvorak's stunning Quintet. "Their sound is, as ever, immediately recognizable-partly due to the sheer richness of timbre but also the sense of four personalities at play." (Gramophone)
The Pavel Haas Quartet was founded in 2002 by the violinist Veronika Jaruskova and the violist Pavel Nikl, who was a member of the ensemble until 2016, when he left due to family reasons. Yet their collaboration has continued. Pavel Nikl has been the ensemble's permanent guest for string quintet performances. Following their victory in the Prague Spring Festival Competition and Premio Paolo Borciani in Reggio Emilia, Italy in 2005, the Pavel Haas Quartet soon established themselves as one of the world's most exciting contemporary chamber ensembles. Performing at the most renowned concert venues around the globe, the PHQ have to date recorded six critically acclaimed CDs, which have received numerous prestigious awards.
Young Moscow-born, Israeli pianist Boris Giltburg is lauded across the globe as a deeply sensitive, insightful and compelling interpreter. Critics have praised his "singing line, variety of touch and broad dynamic palette capable of great surges of energy" (Washington Post) as well as his impassioned, narrative-driven approach to performance: "the interplay of spiritual calm and emphatic engagement is gripping, and one could not wish for a more illuminating, lyrical or more richly phrased interpretation" (Suddeutsche Zeitung). At home in repertoire ranging from Beethoven to Shostakovich, in recent years he has been increasingly recognized as a leading interpreter of Rachmaninov: "His originality stems from a convergence of heart and mind, served by immaculate technique and motivated by a deep and abiding love for one of the 20th century's greatest composer-pianists." (Gramophone).
