Overview

Having been denounced by the Soviet authorities in 1948, Shostakovich expressed his feelings in the nerve-shredding finale of his Fourth Quartet. Powerful personal emotions erupt, too, in the Fifth Quartet before giving way to the Sixth Quartet’s more genial atmosphere.

This concert is supported by The Marchus Trust
