About This Performance

A national treasure in their native Norway, the Vertavo Quartet has firmly established itself as one of today’s most exciting ensembles. Experience their “flair, physicality, and communicative urgency” (Daily Telegraph) in a PCMS debut program that includes works well known to us by Ravel and Britten as well as English composer Elizabeth Maconchy’s String Quartet No. 3, a 10-minute psychological thriller that goes deep into the complexities of family relationships.

Maconchy: Quartet No. 3
Ravel: Quartet in F Major
Britten: Quartet No. 2, Op. 36

Running time: 1 hour and 30 minutes (including intermission)
