Doric String Quartet by Kirk Truman
One of Britain’s preeminent 21st-century string quartets returns to Carnegie Hall’s most intimate stage. Renowned for its Haydn cycle, the Doric String Quartet opens the performance with one of the composer’s six Op. 20 quartets. The enormity of these early works’ influence on music is often noted, and in No. 4—the most popular of the set—their inexhaustible vibrancy remains equally striking. Berg’s passionate and visceral Lyric Suite follows, promising a journey of stunning contrast. The concert ends with the bittersweet potency of Beethoven’s final complete opus: his String Quartet in F Major, Op. 135.
