 | Haydn - op 71 no 2 Alex Roth - new quartet world premiere performance* Beethoven - op 59 no 2 |
Hauntingly beautiful and accessible music is composer Alec Roth's forte and the Allegri Quartet is certain to capture every nuance of the score. Roth has received unparalleled high praise from national press for the Festival's four year project on which he worked with renowned author, Vikram Seth. Here his talents turn to a commission for one of the world's very best string quartets, the Allegri Quartet. They will also play a Haydn quartet and one of Beethoven's Razumovsky Quartets, op 59 no 2 which uses a Russian melody also used by Modest Mussorgsky in Boris Godunov.
*commissioned by James and Lis Woods
