The CONSONE QUARTET—the first period-instrument QUARTET TO BE NAMED
BBC NEW GENERATION ARTISTS—will offer a classical start to the 101st
season of Concerts from the Library of Congress. Opening with the
first of the “Apponyi” QUARTETS FROM 1793, CONSONE WILL PERFORM
HAYDN AT THE HEIGHT OF HIS COMMAND OF THE STRING QUARTET. Celebrated
keyboardist KRISTIAN BEZUIDENHOUT RETURNS TO THE LIBRARY TO JOIN THE
CONSONE QUARTET AT THE FORTEPIANO, performing music by Mozart composed
a decade before the Haydn. The first is a piano concerto in a guise
authorized by Mozart himself for keyboard and string QUARTET, followed
by an arrangement that Ernst Naumann made in the nineteenth century of
Mozart’s quintet for piano and winds. E perience Mozart’s music
filtered through historical lenses, enabling US to hear the old
anew.TICKET INFORMATION
