Composers’ late works are often among their finest.
This is certainly the case with Beethoven’s transcendental String Quartet op. 127, the first of the visionary ’late quartets’ that he wrote during his final years. It is paired here with Mendelssohn’s lovely Four Pieces op. 81, comprising works from across his career. After the concert, audience members will have the chance to meet the Kreisler Quartet – all members of the Luxembourg Philharmonic – over a drink.
Organised by d'Frënn vun de Lëtzebuerger Philharmoniker
The concert will be recorded and broadcast on radio 100,7 on July 7, 2024.
