Event details
Penny Quartet is a fresh interpretative voice on the Australian music scene.
Its love of the classic string quartet repertoire is intertwined with an urge to explore less charted territory. The Quartet’s passion and drive has led to numerous collaborations, recordings and performances across the country, and winning Melbourne Recital Centre’s 2018 Contemporary Masters Award.
Music can inspire and delight us, and it can subvert our expectations too. Beethoven’s mammoth String Quartet No.7 is such a work. Containing some of his most sublime themes, it is the first quartet in his ‘middle’ period, distinguished by pieces of heightened drama and technical difficulty. The newest string quartet by legendary Dutch composer Louis Andriessen is based on Allegri’s 17th-century choral masterpiece Miserere and explores form and structure from every angle. Together these quartets are a perfect pair, enchanting and astonishing the listener.
