Pre-Concert Talk with Robert Hugill • 5.30pm
The proud tradition of the Viennese string quartet ground seemed to grind to a halt after Brahms, but in other countries and other cultural traditions, the genre sprang to life in different waysBartok's six mature string quartets span his compositional life and represent a remarkably musical diary as we watch his style develop, alongside the complex iterations in what it meant to be a Hungarian in the first 50 years of the 20th centuryThese are works that have an important role in Conway's Hall history too
