Czech Chamber Music Society • Ludmila Pavlová

Whenever the music of Latin America is mentioned, Ástor Piazzolla’s name comes up in the same breath. The Czech Chamber Music Society has room on its programmes for the King of the Tango, who elevated the dance to an entirely new level of artistry. The opening tribute to his music will be delivered by the somewhat unusual pairing of violin and percussion, performed by Ludmila Pavlová and Štěpán Hon.
