An ever-present journey with four composers who have touched on deep and fundamental themes of the human being. Mozart’s Sonata K. 310 written in one go upon hearing the news of his mother’s death, Haydn’s Variations in F minor inspired by the myth of Orpheus, Schubert’s Musical Moment no. 1 magically immersed in a bucolic world to rediscover oneself in contact with nature. Closing with Beethoven’s Sonata op. 53 where a dawn of positivity and restorative energy slowly emerges from the deep night, inviting every man to a serene and festive sharing, thanks also to elements of popular taste, alternating with the harmonious and happy inspiration that only nature can sometimes give.

DEBUT CD FOR CHAOS STRING QUARTET

Chaos String Quartet’s musicians announce their debut cd with German label Solo Musica featuring works by Haydn, Ligeti and Hensel!

Ligeti, known as one of the fathers of musical chaos, was a great admirer of Haydn. He studied the works of the master in detail to find inspiration and solutions for his own compositions. In Haydn’s Op. 20/5, the music progresses from a tragic F-minor opening to a liberating fugue, representing the transition from sickness to the triumph of life. In contrast, Ligeti’s “métamorphoses nocturnes” take listeners on a journey from the lowest note of the cello to the heavenly stars. Fanny Hensel’s jewellery box piece continues the metamorphosis throughout its four movements, starting from tonal ambiguity and culminating in a joyful E-Flat Major party in the final movement, providing long-awaited relief and release!
