Musical Unrest: From Perpetual Motion to Peace
Musaeus with guests Nigel Boehm, cello, Ronelle Schaufele, violin
From its exotic-sounding opening through its innovative harmonies, Beethoven’s String Quartet in E Flat Major, nicknamed the “Harp”, is a work of endearing elegance. Its heightened expressiveness captivates the listener with unexpected contrasts. The finesse of Beethoven’s composing at this point in his life hints at a maturity far beyond his age. The Harp String Quartet is angelic to hear, and devilish to play.
Who says Romantic composers aren’t actually romantic? Brahms string sextet #2 in G major has a little secret: it includes a reference to Agathe von Seibold, to whom Brahms had been briefly engaged some years previously. In the first movement, the notes A-G-A-H-E appear, spelling Agathe’s name. From its exotic opening to its melodic contrasts, this work never fails to captivate.
Brahms String Sextet No. 2 in G major and Beethoven S.Q. Op.74 in E flat major "Harp"
