klang Festival Concerts in Meggen – LEBENSLUST – Gala Concert | 20th Anniversary

We’re celebrating—thanks to you, our dear audience. 20 years of «klang»—a tradition that moves, connects, and endures. A gala concert to support «klang» and chamber music. Thank you for your support.

Three great masters, three musical personalities: Haydn’s String Quartet in B-flat major, Op. 33, captivates with its wit, elegance, and playful sophistication. Schumann’s Quartet in F major combines Romantic intimacy with passionate expressiveness and richly contrasting soundscapes. The program concludes with Mozart’s «Hunting Quartet»—cheerful, virtuosic, and full of dance-like energy. A concert that brings together the Classical and Romantic periods in a fascinating variety of styles.
