Star Soloists in a Quartet
Two works written for the same combination of instruments, composed just 15 years apart. Two Eastern European composers, both deeply rooted in the Romantic sound world – yet this exhilarating programme reveals two distinctly different musical languages. On the one hand, there is Sergei Taneyev, a pupil of Tchaikovsky, who wrote the piano part with his own virtuosity in mind. His work brims with vibrant emotion, even in the seemingly technical fugue of the third movement. On the other hand, Antonín Dvořák's second Piano Quartet, Op. 87, offers an equally dazzling display of emotions, while repeatedly inviting the listener to revel in its rich, lyrical melodies. Bringing these masterpieces to life is an exceptional line-up: violinist Hyeyoon Park, violist Timothy Ridout, cellist Kian Soltani and pianist Benjamin Grosvenor – an ensemble whose musical chemistry was described as "married bliss" in a 2023 review.
