Overview
Counterpoint provides the common theme that connects the Doric String Quartet’s choice of fugues by JS Bach to Haydn’s Op. 20 No. 5, which ends with a fugue based on two different subjects. The drama of sound and silence, meanwhile, marks the mysterious opening of Beethoven’s final ‘Razumovsky’ Quartet.
