Chilingirian Quartet 2

with Lesley-Jane Rogers soprano
and Yuko Inoue viola

Haydn Quartet in F minor, Op.55 No.2
Schoenberg Quartet No.2 in F sharp minor, Op.10
Brahms Quintet in G major, Op.111

“I feel air from other planets,” sings the soprano over the weightless harmonic texture of the last movement of Schoenberg’s second quartet. In no other medium than chamber music, and no other work than his second quartet, is Schoenberg’s musical growth out of sumptuous Brahmsian-inspired harmonies better understood. Classical to Romantic to Modern: a musical time machine not to be missed.
