Vanbrugh and Friends

Friday, 4 October 2019, 8.00pm

Shostakovich String Quartet No.1
Mozart String Quintet in G minor K516
Dvorak String Quintet in E flat major Op.97 ‘American’

The Vanbrugh - Keith Pascoe, Simon Aspell and Christopher Marwood - welcome David McElroy and Ed Creedon for performances of two of the great string quintets: Mozart’s dark and melancholic G minor quintet from 1787, and Dvorak’s sunny, mellifluous ‘American’ Quintet, written in 1891.

As curtain - raiser a remarkable young group from CIT Cork School of Music, the Danu Quartet, will play Shostakovich’s first string quartet, music of great charm and brilliance, its superb quartet writing a sure portent of the fourteen extraordinary quartets that followed it.
