Chamber music ensemble Præsenz takes a musical journey back to the time of Jugendstil, a cultural revolution that left its traces in art, architecture and music. Bringing together music by Second Viennese School composers and trailblazers from the USA that arguably embody the Jugendstil esprit, this is an evening of chamber music making not to be missed.
