โ€œThey could be grounded in their tone or mystical. They allowed time to stand still, and they could assume the pose of excitingly aggressive rockers. They did it all,โ€ says The Los Angeles Times of the Danish String Quartet. The Quartet continues the 2022 Robert Mann Chamber Series with an unusual and delightful choice: a collection of folk music, a rare treat to experience with a classical string ensemble. The program begins with Purcellโ€™s pure Chaconne and ends, unforgettably, with Schubertโ€™s Quartet in G Major. โ€œIn his last and greatest string quartet Schubert seems to have set out, like Mahler, to contain the worldโ€ (Gramophone).

Program:
Purcell, Chacony in G Minor for string quartet (arr. Benjamin Britten)
Folk Music from the British Isles (arr. Danish String Quartet)
โ€”
Schubert, String Quartet No. 15 in G Major, D. 887
