Romantic Travelogues - Concordia Quartet’s Malaysia Tour Homecoming Concert

Travel and romance have long inspired some of the greatest works. Fresh from their concert tour of Malaysia Concordia Quartet presents a travelogue of Romantic works written while their composers were away from home.

The programme features Dvořák’s ‘American’ quintet which incorporates the sights and sounds he experienced when he saw a Native American traveling circus and Mendelssohn’s String Quartet Op. 44 No. 2 written while the composer was on honeymoon in the Black Forest.

The night is topped off by Schubert’s Quartettsatz a work so exquisite and complete that some scholars believe Schubert deemed it needed no additional movements.

Violist Andrew Filmer from Malaysia joins the quartet members in the Dvořák String Quintet.
