    Overview

    Labels attached to Beethoven’s so-called early, middle and late periods can often feel prescriptive, too narrow to account for the originality found within works produced at different times in his creative life.

    The Elias String Quartet launches its Beethoven cycle with three strikingly complementary works, in which Beethoven used aspects of music’s past to produce scores that would help shape its future.
