Ian Venables: New work, world premiere
One of the U.K.’s premier string ensembles, the Dante Quartet is known for its imaginative programming and impassioned performances.
For its Moss debut, the quartet is joined by Virginia Tech faculty member Brian Thorsett — an exceptional and versatile American tenor whose singing is often praised for its clarity, warmth, and expression — in the world premiere of a new work created for Thorsett and the Dante Quartet by British composer Ian Venables. The evening also includes performances of two poignant, emotionally deep, and introspective works: Beethoven’s String Quartet in F Major, op. 135, and Elgar’s String Quartet in E minor, op. 83.
