Elder After Hours - Rapture

Australian String Quartet

Beethoven  String Quartet in F minor, Op. 95 Serioso
Vanessa Perica  String Quartet No. 1 No Feeling is Final (World Premiere)*
Janacek  String Quartet No. 2 Intimate Letters
Golijov  Tenebrae for String Quartet

Beethoven’s String Quartet No. 11 in F minor bursts forth, opening Rapture with unrivalled energy and intensity, setting the scene for a concert of remarkable contrasts. Experience the world premiere of Australian jazz composer Vanessa Perica’s No Feeling is Final, a four-movement quartet drawing inspiration from the composer’s own life and all its joys, twists and turns. Janáček’s Intimate Letters transports us to the fever dreams and passions of unrequited love, before Golijov’s tender Tenebrae reminds us of the wonder and fragility of human existence.
