Program

While Schumann presents an unusually cheerful mood in this music, Beethoven is dramatic, tender, playful, and intense—all in one stunning quartet. Between them comes the New York premiere of a string quartet by James MacMillan, a devout and passionate Scottish composer who has said that he exposes his soul when he writes chamber music.
