Quatuor Van Kuijk: ECHO Rising Stars

イベント情報

Encounter a young string quartet on the verge of stardom. The French Quatuor Van Kuijk offers Haydn, Ligeti, Mendelssohn, and a new work by Édith Canat de Chizy in a varied and intriguing program.

Full of musical jests and energy, Haydn's 'The Joke' Quartet sets the scene before the Van Kuijks delve into Ligeti's somber, uneasy First Quartet, the Métamorphoses nocturnes. A trained violinist, de Chizy is particularly noted for her string writing, while Mendelssohn's Fourth Quartet is a shimmering depiction of the disbelieving joy of a young man who has recently received all he ever wanted, and can't believe his luck!
