Jerusalem Quartet
Berlin, Konzerthaus Berlin — Kleiner Saal
About the Event
The Jerusalem Quartet, founded in 1996, dedicates the first concert in this season's “String Quartet International” series to Haydn's first “Prussian Quartet”, which the composer wrote for the cello‐playing King Frederick William II of Prussia, and Mozart's “Dissonance Quartet”, whose unusual harmonies shocked audiences at the time. After the interval, the Jerusalem Quartet proves that Dvořák's famous melodious 12th “American” String Quartet does not always have to be the only one: after his second return from the New World, the composer initially had a kind of composer's block and was unable to continue what he had begun. The knot was happily untied while working on String Quartet No. 13.
