Programme

Interval

Overview

Natalie Klouda’s Suite for solo cello, first performed in 2017, draws inspiration from Bach’s cello suites and Indian classical music. It forms the poignant preface to Adès’s seven-movement string quartet, Arcadiana, with its fleeting images of a rustic idyll, and Schubert’s miraculous String Quintet, completed just two months before his death.
