Meta4oric
The Finnish string quartet Meta4 presents a chamber music programme that ranges from Romanticism to a world premiere: the String Quartet in A minor op. 13 was composed in 1827, immediately after Beethoven's death. It is therefore not surprising that Mendelssohn paid tribute to him with echoes. Antonín Dvořák's Piano Quintet in A major op. 81 is inspired by folklore, for which pianist Olli Mustonen, also from Finland, joins the quartet. Finally, there will be the world premiere of a new string quartet by Thomas Larcher, which was commissioned by the Merito String Instruments Trust. In the past, the composer, born in 1963, has repeatedly demonstrated his ability to write string quartets with an original sound.
