Josef Suk (1874-1935) Elegie for piano trio Op. 23
Johannes Brahms (1833-97) Clarinet Trio in A minor Op. 114
These three highly personal works bring together Suk’s memorial to the famous Bohemian writer Julius Zeyer, and one of Brahms’s pieces for the virtuoso clarinetist Richard Mühlfeld. Dvořák’s delightful Miniatures were written for performance with an old colleague and a next-door neighbour.

The regions of Bohemia and Moravia endured political, military and linguistic control by multiple nations and governments in the 19th and 20th centuries. ‘From My Homeland’ showcases some of the most vibrant, imaginative and unusual works written in the 1800s and 1900s, as well as music by Johannes Brahms – friend and champion of Antonín Dvořák.
The series (October 2023 to March 2024) also includes a day of concerts, films and talks dedicated to the victims of the Theresienstadt Concentration Camp between 1941-45.
