The Esposito Quartet is one of our musical treasures, four extraordinary musicians who have been playing as a quartet since 2010.
For this performance at The Source, they feature one of John Kinsella’s finest works, his third quartet, written in 1977 during the final illness of his first wife; Grammy award-winning Rhiannon Giddens’ 'At the purchaser's option' is based on a song from her album 'Freedom Highway'.
The concert opens with yet another entertaining quartet by Haydn and ends with one of Brahms’ most exuberant and joyful works, his B flat major quartet Op.67.
Programme:
Haydn - Quartet Op.17 No.5 [1771]
Kinsella - Quartet No.3 [1977]
Rhiannon Giddens - At the purchaser's option [2016]
Brahms - Quartet in B flat major Op.67 [1875]
