What it is about
The Frankfurt Radio Symphony returns to the International Theatre Frankfurt for the opening concert of its Kammerflimmern chamber music series. The programme puts two composers from the 19th and 20th centuries in the spotlight, pairing works by Emilie Mayer and Grażyna Bacewicz with an early string quartet by Ludwig van Beethoven that bears the influence of Mozart.
The concert opens with Grażyna Bacewicz’s Fourth String Quartet, which won the Polish composer an international composition competition in Liège in 1951. Emilie Mayer’s String Quartet in G minor follows, and Beethoven’s Quartet in A major closes the programme.
