Shostakovich: String Quartet No. 8 in C minor Op. 110
Interval
Beethoven: String Quartet in A minor Op. 132
Â
We are delighted to open our season in customary style with the Sacconi Quartet who bring us two works by composers central to the quartet genre, preceded by Heartfelt, a work in two movements by Roxanna Panufnik, commissioned by the Sacconis in 2019. Panufnik, a composer now familiar to Wallingford audiences, begins with a movement using four dance melodies from Uzbekistan and concludes with Lament For A Bulgarian Dancing Bear. This is intriguingly based on the recorded heartbeat of Albie, a European brown bear as he underwent surgery at Bristol Zoo!
