The Voice of the Viola

Pick-Staiger Concert Hall
Northwestern University, Evanston

Experience the richness and rugged beauty of the Hebrides landscape painted by Mendelssohn followed by Wagner’s intensely poetic and tender Siegfried Idyll. Then, Charles Pikler, uses his instrument as the melancholy voice of the wandering “Harold” in Berlioz’s Harold in Italy – travel to far-off places from the comfort of your seat.
