The star of this first event is the Armida Quartet, an internationally renowned ensemble composed of violinists Martin Fulda and Wojciech Koprowski, violist Teresa Schwamm, and cellist Peter-Philipp Staemmler. The quartet made a name for itself on the international scene by winning first prize at the ARD Competition in Munich in 2012 and is now recognized for the high quality of its performances and the originality of its artistic projects. Active in Europe’s major musical centers, the quartet is distinguished by a rigorous yet innovative approach to the repertoire.
Departing from the chronological order of composition, this first concert brings together two emblematic works from Schubert’s oeuvre: the String Quartet No. 9 in G minor, D. 173, an early work of great freshness and verve, and the monumental String Quartet No. 15 in G major, Op. 161, D. 887, a masterpiece of his mature period, characterized by extraordinary expressive richness and a dramatic tension of rare intensity.
This quartet cycle is presented not only as a tribute to one of the greatest composers—considered Beethoven’s heir—but also asa unique opportunity to experience Schubert’s captivating and passionate music.
