Drawing inspiration from an exhibition that examines Paul Cézanne’s lifelong, intimate—some would say obsessive—artistic dialogue with his wife, muse, and model, Hortense Fiquet, Attacca mines a similar relationship: that of Czech composer Leoš Janáček and the married woman thirty-seven years his junior, Kamila Stösslová, with whom he exchanged more than seven hundred letters, and who inspired his quartets.
Leoš Janáček: Quartet No. 1, “Kreutzer Sonata” and Quartet No. 2, “Intimate Letters”
