Takács Quartet

Wed 14 Nov 7:30pm at Town Hall

“They are currently the greatest string quartet in the world”, raved the critic of The Guardian last September. The Takacs Quartet play with intense immediacy and consistently burnished tone, creating performances that are probing, revealing and constantly engaging. Two classics by Haydn and Dvorak frame Janacek’s passionate Second Quartet which vividly conveys his love for a woman thirty-eight years his junior.

Classic FM’s Anne-Marie Minhall says of tonight’s recommended concert:
“Don’t miss an opportunity to see the award-winning Takacs Quartet. One of the highlights this evening promises to be Dvorak’s Quartet No 12 in F, nicknamed the American, undoubtedly one of the best-loved chamber works by any composer.”
