A new work by French composer and philosopher Hugues Dufourt for the legendary Arditti Quartet, co-commissioned by Wigmore Hall, receives its first outing in a programme interleaved with Luciano Berio’s Sequenza XI, written in 1986–87 for Eliot Fisk.
Two further UK premières – a string quartet by the South Korean Younghi Pagh-Paan, and Son dementes cuerdes by Hilda Paredes for guitar and quartet – complete the programme.
