Beethoven: String Quartet
in F, H.34
Purcell: Chacony in G minor (arr. Britten)
Oliver Leith:
Chaconne (Scottish première, title tbc)
Emilie Mayer: String
Quartet in G
This concert is full of revelations. Opening with
Beethoven’s own arrangement of his Piano Sonata Opus 14 No.1, it concludes
with the Quartet in G by Emilie Mayer (1812–1883), the most prolific woman
composer of the German Romantic period, whose work was greatly influenced
by Felix Mendelssohn. The early Baroque musical dance form ‘Chacony’
provides inspiration for a new work by Oliver Leith, a young British
composer whose music is earning widespread international acclaim.
""There
was an air of hushed spiritual intensity … played with extreme lyricism,
it was a beautifully shaped meditation” The Strad
