Pierre Boulez Saal: Jack Quartet

About the Event

In this highly‐anticipated concert, hear the mellifluous sounds of chamber music by Xenakis, Gee, Ergün, Wubbels and Lewis at Berlin's treasured and world‐renowned Pierre Boulez Saal.

Few ensembles have their fingers as close to the pulse of the present as the JACK Quartet — not without reason did the New York Times call the Americans the country's 'leading new music foursome'.

Pierre Boulez Saal
The Pierre Boulez Hall is the hall of the Barenboim‐Said Academy. Designed by Frank O. Geary, the hall opened in March 2017 in Berlin, Germany. The hall was named in tribute to French conductor and composer Pierre Boulez, a name suggested by the Argentinian‐Israeli pianist and conductor Daniel Barenboim. Despite being essentially a chamber venue, the structure has a cuboid shape that can accommodate medium‐sized orchestras, and up to 682 visitors. Architect and musicians alike seek to offer a 360 degree perspective on music, combining styles, cultures and viewpoints in the space.
