QUADROPHONIC
20th century literature for string quartet with a reference to the classic repertoire
The young BL!NDMAN[strings] lead you through some curiosities of 20th-century string quartet pieces. |
The punch and technique of BL!NDMAN[strings] enables them to exceed the range of classical sounds, overturning old habits and new techniques. The result is an intently focused course that leads the audience from Schubert to Saariaho.
