Tagged as one of the greatest string quartets of the past 100 years by BBC Music Magazine, this astounding group still brings to life the classic Hungarian tradition of string playing, rhythmically dynamic and full toned. Many of their recordings have reached legendary status.
“Classical music doesn’t get much more life-enhancing than this.” (The Guardian) “Rich contrasts: a Wigmore Hall evening of dazzling versatility…” (Seen and Heard International).
Programme:
Mendelssohn: String Quartet No 6 in F Minor, Opus 80
Gabriela Lena Frank: “Quijotadas”
Schubert: String Quartet No 14 in D Minor, D810 “Death and the Maiden”
