At the Grave of BeethovenKaren Tanaka – ‘At the Grave of Beethoven’
Leoš Janáček – String Quartet no 1 ‘Kreutzer Sonata’
Ludwig van Beethoven – String Quartet no 3
Works inspired by Beethoven, the titan of string quartet composition, are featured in the final program of the year. Japanese composer Karen Tanaka pays tribute to his influence in her thoughtful work ‘At the Grave of Beethoven’, referencing material from Beethoven’s String Quartet no 3 in particular. Czech composer Janáček’s impassioned quartet also has its origin in Beethoven’s work at one remove, taking as its inspiration Tolstoy’s angst-ridden story The Kreutzer Sonata.
