The concert will begin with the works of one of the greatest Baroque masters, Johann Sebastian Bach. Then, we will hear the romantic Nocturnes by Peter Tchaikovsky and Edvard Grieg. The melancholy and beauty of the Elegy by Ferenc Liszt will follow. At the end of the concert, we will travel to the present day thanks to Philip Glass's minimalist and mesmerising compositions. This unique musical event will leave you with unforgettable memories, emotions, and food for thought. Come and experience music under the night sky together at the Planetarium!
