Beethoven’s String Quartet No.11 in F minor bursts forth, opening Rapture with unrivalled energy and intensity, setting the scene for a concert of remarkable contrasts.
Experience the World Premiere of Australian composer Vanessa Perica’s No Feeling is Final, a four-movement quartet drawing inspiration from the composer's own life and all its joys, twists and turns.
Janáček’s Intimate Letters then transports us to the fever dreams and passions of unrequited love before Golijov’s tender Tenebrae reminds us of the wonder and fragility of human existence.
