The Bloomsbury Players return with a programme showcasing Dvorak’s double bass quintet on gut strings and in its original 5-movement version (including the extraordinary Intermezzo that was removed). They pair this with Rossini’s first Sonata a quattro, composed when he was only twelve years old, and Fanny Mendelssohn’s rhapsodic and poignant string quartet.
Programme
Gioachino Rossini - Sonata a quattro, no.1 in G major
Fanny Mendelssohn - String Quartet in Eb major
~ Interval ~
Antonín Dvořák - String Quartet in G major, op.77 (including Intermezzo)
