Haydn
String Quartet in C major, Op 74 No 1
Mendelssohn
String Quartet No 1 in E flat, Op 12
Beethoven
String Quartet in E minor, Op 59 No 2 'Razumovsky'
For our last concert, three great string quartets played by an excellent young prize-winning ensemble. Fêted as a superstar on his first visit to London, Haydn ensured his return visit would be even more successful with a brilliant new set of quartets, the first of which opens this programme. Finally, the most expansive of Beethoven’s wonderful Razumovsky quartets makes a glorious climax to our anniversary season.
Note change from original programme.
"Goldscheider [is] becoming a musical Bear Grylls, fearlessly leaping through its dangerous terrain. You find yourself with him every step of the way."
