Four exceptional chamber musicians share the stage in one of the 20th Century’s most remarkable compositions. The Quatuor pour la fin du temps was originally written and first performed in 1941 during Messiaen’s incarceration by the Nazis as a prisoner of war. By turns exultant, prayerful, apocalyptic and mystical, the piece was inspired by verses from the Book of Revelation concerning the end of time and the beginning of eternity.
