Erik Satie: SocrateConcert with Wioletta Hebrowska
Wednesday 24 June 2026,
doors 6:00 p.m.,
concert begins 6:20 p.m.
The evening continues the programme series accompanying the current exhibition of Constantin Brancusi and turns to the close friendship Brancusi shared with several composers of his time. This time, the focus is on an even wider range of Brancusi’s friendships. At the heart of the programme is ‘Socrate’, a rarely performed work by Erik Satie. The libretto of the piece is based on Platonic dialogues, which were of great significance to both artists. A few years after the piece’s world premiere, Brancusi even created a sculpture entitled ‘Socrate’ (1922), now at MoMA in New York Citx.

The evening was organised in collaboration with Constantin Silvestri e.V., Berlin. The association’s aim is to preserve and promote the artistic legacy of the eminent conductor Constantin Silvestri, and to strengthen cultural ties between Romania and Germany. We extend our special thanks to the Grand Lodge of Romania and the Deutsch-Rumänische Gesellschaft e.V. (DRG), whose crucial support made this concert possible. The series “Brancui in Context” is supported by the Romanian Cultural Institute, represented by its Berlin branch, the Romanian Cultural Institute "Titu Maiorescu" Berlin.
The concert is part of the exhibition Brancusi at Neue Nationalgalerie, Stiftung Preußischer Kulturbesitz. It was realized in collaboration with the Centre Pompidou, made possible by FREUNDE der Nationalgalerie.
