Vaughan Williams & Shostakovich: Phantasy Quintet Vaughan Williams (+1 More)

Public

Phantasy Quintet

String Quartet No. 9 in E-flat major, op. 117

Arshiya Banu

Valide

His ninth string quartet was composed in 1964 and came during a period of relative happiness and artistic freedom following the terrors of the Stalin years.
Written to be performed without any break, this quartet positively fizzes with energy, with richness and detail in both structure and texture. Experience all sides of the composer, from the traditionalist who worshipped Bach to the modern creator who found so much inspiration in jazz.

Ralph Vaughan Williams rarely composed chamber music, but what he did write is magnificent. His Phantasy Quintet displays all the trademarks of his style: rich textures, exquisite harmonies and melodic lines that soar high above muscular lower notes. It’s a symphony in miniature.

There is so much to discover in this special event, and two perfect opportunities for collaboration between superb musicians.
