Classical
Consone Quartet Music at Paxton Associate Ensemble
Mozart: String Quartet in D, K.499 ‘Hoffmeister'
Beethoven: String
Quartet in F minor, Op.95 ‘Serioso’
Beethoven’s high
intensity ‘Serioso’ quartet is a seething, melancholic work that
eventually gives way to a wild exuberance, and it is a stark contrast to
the ‘Hoffmeister’, named after the publisher who specifically asked Mozart
to write a ‘popular’ piece that could be sold at great profit.
“Absolutely
brilliant playing sent us out at the interval breathless but exhilarated!”
