Kebyart Ensemble & Dénes Várjon: ST/ART PROJECT

"A space for a few days to experience, meet, learn from each other, challenge and grow together, in rehearsals and concerts."

This is how Tobias Schabenberger, member of the Jürg Müller-Stiftung, defines the ST / ART project. A project supported by this foundation jointly with the RHL Foundation and that will happen again next November.

These two foundations have decided to bet on our quartet and become part of this year's edition with the intention of internationalizing our career. For this, the ST / ART project invites a renowned musician who works with a young emerging group for four days.

Thus, during this period of time, we will have the opportunity to grow with the prestigious concert performer Dénes Várjon (Budapest, 1951). This pianist, who studied with György Kurtág, Ferenc Rados or Sir András Schiff among others, regularly shares the stage with Steven Isserlis, Miklós Perényi, Tabea Zimmerman or Jörg Widmann. The rehearsals will be held at the Musik Akademie Basel and will be open to students and the general public.

The project will culminate in a concert, on November 27 at 6pm, at the Grosser Saal of the Musik Akademie Basel. The entrance will be free and in the program we will listen to works by Pietro Locatelli, Peter Eötvös and Robert Schumann's string quintet, with Dénes himself at the piano and us as a string quartet.

Looking forward to meeting you in the classes and the final concert!
