Mozart Pass Gringolts Quartet. Lily Francis Alle Mozart-Streichquintette I-III

Fri, Apr 11, 2025, 14:30
Gringolts Quartet (Streichquartett), Lily Francis (Viola)
For Mozart connoisseurs, it's clear: his most significant chamber music works aren't his 23 string quartets, but his six string quintets. These quintets reached an unmatched peak, admired even by later composers like Schubert and Brahms. The Gringolts Quartet, joined by violist Lily Francis, performs these works in three consecutive historically informed concerts, using gut strings tuned to 440 Hz. Pre-concert talks are available. This event offers a pass for all three concerts with a discount.

Gringolts Quartet. Lily Francis Alle Mozart-Streichquintette I

Fri, Apr 11, 2025, 15:00
Gringolts Quartet (Streichquartett), Lily Francis (Viola)
Musicologist Martin Geck praised Mozart's string quintets, noting how a second viola opens a new world of chamber music. Mozart's first quintet, KV 174, was composed in Salzburg in 1773, crowning his early chamber music creations. His C-major Quintet KV 515, written 14 years later, is his longest four-movement instrumental piece. It's a bright work that reflects “Figaro” and anticipates the “Jupiter” Symphony. A pre-concert talk with Marcus Imbsweiler takes place at 2:30 pm in the Old University Auditorium.

Gringolts Quartet. Lily Francis Alle Mozart-Streichquintette II

Fri, Apr 11, 2025, 17:00
Gringolts Quartet (Streichquartett), Lily Francis (Viola)
In April 1788, Mozart advertised three new quintets in the Wiener Zeitung. Among them was the wind serenade KV 388, adapted for string quintet, alongside KV 515 and KV 516. This work, KV 388, is not a light-hearted piece, but a serious "Nachtmusique". The G minor quintet also carries intense emotions and tension. However, it concludes with a lively final rondo. A pre-concert talk will be given by Marcus Imbsweiler.

Gringolts Quartet. Lily Francis Alle Mozart-Streichquintette III

Fri, Apr 11, 2025, 20:00
Gringolts Quartet (Streichquartett), Lily Francis (Viola)
Mozart's String Quintet in D major, K. 593, premiered in December 1790 at a chamber music evening in Mozart's Vienna apartment, attended by Joseph Haydn, who embarked on his first London journey the next day. It was to be the last encounter between the two friends, as Mozart had only one year to live. The two late string quintets—K. 614 was written in April 1791 as his last completed chamber music work for strings—also form a kind of farewell with Haydn allusions and melancholic touches. At the same time, however, they contain playful music that, with its harmonic and melodic richness, contrasts, and profoundness, points to the future.
