About this concert
Show: 7:30 pmA deeply felt emotional expressivity binds these works from the Classical, Romantic, and 20th-century worlds. In Haydn’s quartet, the second-movement Largo is the work’s poetic soul—a profoundly beautiful meditation. Brahms, too, looks inward in his String Sextet in G Major with a five-note theme whose pitches spell the name of a lost love in an outpouring of uncommon beauty and wistful nostalgia, while Shostakovich mourns a lost friend with gripping music of uncompromising power and somber beauty in his String Quartet No. 11.PerformersTakács Quartet·· Edward Dusinberre, Violin·· Károly Schranz, Violin·· Geraldine Walther, Viola·· András Fejér, CelloErika Eckert, ViolaDavid Requiro, CelloProgramHAYDN String Quartet in D Major, Op. 76, No. 5SHOSTAKOVICH String Quartet No. 11BRAHMS String Sextet in G Major, Op. 36
