Portsmouth Chamber Music Series – Mozart, Beethoven & Grieg

About this event

Mozart String Quartet No.15 in D minor K.421 (33') Beethoven String Quartet No.11 Op.95 'Serioso' (20') Grieg String Quartet (33') Norway's multi-award-winning Engegård Quartet brings its customary boldness, energy and freshness to Portsmouth Guildhall's Lens Studio this Novemnber. The quartet has a deep affinity with Mozart and Beethoven, and a profound commitment to Norwegian music. Fresh from releasing a highly praised complete recorded cycle of Mozart's string quartets, this concert brings together key strands of the Quartet's musical life. Beethoven's 'Serioso' retains its power to move as it veers violently between brutish power and yearning lyricism, before tumbling to its thrilling conclusion. Grieg's only completed string quartet is joyously inspired by the unique sound of the hardanger fiddle, evoking singing, dancing and quarrels in a distinctly Norwegian musical language.
