The celebrated Dvořák quartet takes on an epic dimension here in a version for string orchestra, as Kerson Leong and Les Violons du Roy once again unite their talent and fiery energy in a partnership whose chemistry remains as strong as ever. They promise an electrifying encounter on the occasion of a new work by François Dompierre.
