We close the third edition of the International Festival Organs of the Citadel of Timișoara with an extraordinary concert held by the Flauto Dolce ensemble. The Cluj-Napoca based baroque ensemble consisting of Zoltan Majo (artistic director, straight flute), Maria Szabo (straight flute), Noemi Miklos (organ, harpsichord) and Mihaela Maxim (soprano) will perform an absolutely fascinating and rare repertoire that should not be missed by any lover of early music.
