Sunset: Death & the Maiden
A reflective evening of intimate music at sundown in the unique in-the-round setting of St Martin’s Church in Stoney Middleton, against a stunning backdrop of the beautiful Peak District.
Schubert’s deeply personal and beloved ‘Death and the Maiden’ quartet is preceded by the crowning achievement of Sibelius’s chamber music, a soulful quartet of fierce intensity, and a sonorous duet from Schnittke that draws out the eerie tones of the bass strings.
Programme: SCHNITTKE Hymnus II for cello and double bass (6’) SIBELIUS String Quartet ‘Voces Intimae’ (32’) SCHUBERT String Quartet No. 14 ‘Death and the Maiden’ (40’) Part of Sheffield Chamber Music Festival 2023.
