Wigmore Hall Mozart: String Quartet no.21 in D major, KV 575 Prokofiev: String Quartet no.2 in F major, Op.92 Brahms: String Quartet no.1 in C minor, op.51 no.1 Alexander Pavolvsky, Sergei Bressler (violins)Ori Kam (viola)Kyril Zlotnikov (cello) A wonderful concert from beginning to end. The Jerusalem Quartet treated Mozart as he should be treated: the players’ tone rich and cultivated. Opening tone would not have been taken for the Amadeus Quartet, yet would surely have been recognised by them. Fineness of tone was certainly no end in itself, though; it enlivened and enabled Mozart’s structures from the first movement onward in coming to life as form. There was rhetoric, where required, but this again was properly integrated, not as far too often a substitute for formal communication. For above all, every phrase was imbued with a sense of life and was formally directed. The cliché of the Classical string quartet […]

Wigmore Hall String Quartet no.2 in G major, op.18 no.2 String Quartet no.8 in E minor, op.59 no.2 String Quartet no.13 in B-flat major, op.130, with Grosse Fuge, op.133 Alexander Pavolvsky, Sergei Bressler (violins)Jonathan Brown (viola)Kyril Zlotnikov (cello) For the second in its series of five concerts offering the complete (canonical) Beethoven quartets, the Jerusalem Quartet followed its programming practice in the first. Whereas last month, we heard the first of the ‘early’, the first of the ‘middle-period’, and the first of the ‘late’ quartets, here we heard the second in each category, a satisfying and thoughtful alternative to either a strictly chronological survey or one that combined the works according to other criteria. One surprise change was that of the violist; Ori Kam had fallen ill and been replaced by the excellent Jonathan Brown, doubtless to the relief of all concerned. The G major Quartet, op.18 no.2, […]

Wigmore Hall String Quartet no.1 in F major, op.18 no.1 String Quartet no.7 in F major, op.59 no.1 String Quartet no.12 in E-flat major, op.127 Alexander Pavolvsky, Sergei Bressler (violins)Ori Kam (viola)Kyril Zlotnikov (cello) We lost so much in 2020: above all, the lives of people across the world, more than 70,000 in this country alone. Even if the deaths were to stop right now—they will not—the trauma as well as the long-term physical consequences will haunt many of us for the rest of our lives. The social and cultural consequences seem likely in anything other than the longest term, notwithstanding hopes that may have been expressed, to be deeply negative too. As we try to rebuild our lives and our ways of living, stymied at all points by those wielding power over us, we continue to grieve the loss of Beethoven in his anniversary year. The world went deaf to […]
