JUILLIARD STRING QUARTET

Wed, Jan 22, 2025, 19:30
Juilliard String Quartet (String Quartet)
According to Jörg Widmann, Beethoven’s Opus 130 represents the “string quartet of string quartets.” His own Eighth and Tenth Quartets were written in response to the Viennese master’s late work, in particular its famous slow movement, titled “Cavatina.” The New York–based Juilliard String Quartet frames Widmann’s “Beethoven Studies” with their historical model, including both its traditional version and the Grosse Fuge, the work’s original finale.

DANISH STRING QUARTET

Danish String Quartet (String Quartet)
Audiences of the Danish String Quartet know that the ensemble likes to blur the boundaries between folk music and classical music. In this concert, the four Scandinavians combine traditional melodies by 18th­-century Irish harper Turlough O’Carolan with works from different eras to create a sound world that transcends styles and genres. In addition to Stravinsky’s Three Pieces for String Quartet, which evoke Russian dance rhythms and sacred chants, the program includes Mozart’s delightful F-­major Divertimento and Caroline Shaw’s Haydn­inspired Entr’acte.

CASTALIAN STRING QUARTET

Thu, Nov 21, 2024, 20:00
Konzerthaus Berlin, Kleiner Saal (Berlin)
Castalian String Quartet
13 children's dresses, hand-sewn from the life jackets of refugees, collected at the “Lifejacket Graveyard” in Lesvos, Greece: each dress represents one million of the 13 million children on the run worldwide. The installation “Ungrievable Lifes” by British artist Caroline Burraway inspired composer Charlotte Bray to create her work of the same name, which consists of 13 movements - one for each vest dress, one for each million refugee children. The young Castalian String Quartet premiered the work in 2023 and continues to include it in its program - as a reminder not to forget the fate of these children.
