SoNoRo
November 11, 11.30:XNUMX a.m., MNIT headquarters
On Saturday, we have a matinee concert at the museum.
For the third consecutive year, we are happy to host one of the concerts of the prestigious international chamber music festival SoNoRo. We started this friendship with the "SoNoRo Dreamtigers" edition, and last year the museum was "SoNoRo Orient Express station". This year, we invite you to an "On the Couch" edition. Not just any kind of "couch", because, being a museum, we will try to create a decoration from pieces authentic, appropriate to the period from which the repertoire is chosen. So, while you're listening to music, you'll also be treated to an exclusive mini-exhibition.
The recital at MNIT is called "Padre e Figlio" and focuses on two father-son relationships: Leopold and Wolfgang Mozart & Julius Leopold and Erich Wolfgang Korngold - from two different worlds and two centuries.
This program was also played on October 31, at the Romanian Athenaeum, as part of the SoNoRo Festival in Bucharest, and after the success there, we invite the Cluj audience to live this unique musical experience... at the museum.

With the help of the images, the visitor can discover the rooms where the Rațiu family received their many guests who crossed their threshold at the end of the century. the XNUMXth and in the first decades of the century XNUMXth The guest lounge, his daughter Felicia's office, and the other rooms were beautifully decorated with period furniture, decorative objects, memorabilia, fabrics, draperies, paintings, framed photographs, and ornamental plants that created an intimate and pleasant atmosphere.
