The Doric String Quartet performs two evening recitals at Wigmore Hall of works by Franz Schubert. Both of tonight’s quartets derived their nicknames from themes borrowed from other Schubert works: the A minor quartet’s Andante references his incidental music for Helmina von Chézy's play Rosamunde, Fürstin von Zypern; and the D minor quartet’s second movement theme is drawn from the song Death and the Maiden.
