Overview
Based in New York, the Escher nevertheless has strong UK connections as a former BBC Radio 3 New Generation ensemble, as regular Wigmore performers and as visitors to the BBC Proms at Cadogan Hall. Two standard pieces form the programme: one of Mozart’s works (1789) originally commissioned by the King of Prussia, and Dvořák’s final quartet (1895).
