Celebrate Valentine’s Day with loved ones in an evening of Tchaikovsky's String Quartet No.1 and Borodin's Quartet No.2. Both, much loved quartets, serve as sources of inspiration both to the composer's closest relationships and as inspiration to other artists, such as Leo Tolstoy who was brought to tears upon hearing Tchaikovsky's Quartet.
Music from films 'Mishima', 'The Truman Show', 'There will be Blood', 'Platoon' and 'The Lobster' take us on a cinematic retreat via the sound world of the string quartet in this cinematic performance from Resident String Quartet, Piatti. This dramatic and powerful programme will feature the music of Johnny Greenwood, Barber's infamous Adagio for Strings as well as Shostakovich's haunting String Quartet No.8.
