Brooklyn Rider: Complete Glass String Quartets
Advertisement
“A string quartet of boundless imagination.” —NPR
The chamber group Brooklyn Rider embarks on a live retrospective of all nine of Philip Glass’s string quartets. The three-part series is copresented with the Schubert Club, following their previous Beethoven and Shostakovich string quartet cycles.
For their Minneapolis appearance, Brooklyn Rider brings their signature virtuosic precision and deep research to Glass’s oeuvre. From the minimalist dissonance of String Quartet No. 1 (1966) to the neo-romanticism of No. 5 (1991) to the theatrical sweep of No. 9 “King Lear” (2022), Glass’s compositions reflect a lifetime of experimental rigor and profound pathos.
Copresented with Schubert Club Mix.
Part of Philip Glass @ 90.
