A superb concert by the Dudok Quartet from Amsterdam last night - including my favourite Schubert β€˜Death and the Maiden’ plus some lovely Brahms, Liszt β€˜Via Crucis’, Mussorgsky β€˜Songs and Dances of Death’, beautiful Carlo Gesdualdo and some rather tricky Kaija Saariaho @musicintheround.bsky.social

In the first week of September we will give two performances of the inevitable 7 Last Words by Joseph #HAYDN! A metaphysical trip that’s up there with late Beethoven and Schubert, but in a very democratic and brightly lit language.
