Acoustic Exploration: from delicacy to tectonic force!

This concert will explore the vast range of sounds that can produce a string quartet and will also underline the centennial year of Iannis Xenakis’ birth with Ergma, a very powerful work. You will also assist to the world premiere of Hologramme Modal for string quartet and kamancheh by Iranian composer and musician Showan Tavakol and hear Krzysztof Penderecki’s very exploratory Quartet No. 1. The Molinari will play Oasis by Azerbaijani composer Franghiz Ali-Zadeh and will close the concert with the revolutionary Quartet no.3 written in 1927 by Béla Bartók.
