Overview

JACK Quartet’s recording of Helmut Lachenmann’s three string quartets, released in 2014, was lauded for its technical precision, dynamic intensity and seductive beauty. The group’s feeling for his distinctive music, with its radical approach to sound and its production, has deepened in the years since. JACK concludes its latest Wigmore Hall outing with a tribute to the German composer just a few months after his 90th birthday.
