Overview
Schubert’s dramatic and lyrical ‘Quartettsatz’ opensthis programme, followed by a work charged withHaydn’s inventive mastery, complete with awhispered fugue.
The Endellion String Quartet alsoexplores the expressive range and tremendouspower of Beethoven’s Op. 95, before turning, incontrast, to Debussy’s early masterpiece andrevealing his extraordinary imagination for colourand texture.
