Cecília Szőke
Where is the time when the dilettante acquaintances or available musicians gathered after a Sunday siesta, pulled a string quartet, a trio, or a sonata from the closet and began to play for their own delight. Or the dashing young man who came for tea and at the family's urging accompanied the miss in a Schubert song. Perhaps this world is gone forever, everything was changed by voice recording. Today, anyone can listen to the most beautiful pieces with the best performance, no need to use a disk or CD, everyone can carry half the library of all music in their pocket on their cell phone.
What an experience, however, what joy it is to play live together. Or just listen to be a part of it all. It is almost impossible to reccreate the intimate atmosphere best suited for chamber music for an intimate mood, but the Chamber Music Room of the Társaskör is an ideal place for this. And even thoug the pieces being played were written for different eras, inspiration or purpose, they are connected by the joy of playing music together and of communication without words.
