Drew Balch: viola • Jonathan Bloxham: cello


Mozart Quartet No. 4 in D Major
Borodin Quartet No. 2 in D
Dvořák Quartet No. 12 in F (The American)

Borodin's lyrical 2nd Quartet (1881) contains his most famous theme, which appeared again in his score for the musical Kismet. Sandwiched by one of Mozart's finest quartets and Dvořák's ever-popular 'American' Quartet, this is chamber music of the highest order, played by one of the best young quartets to emerge for many a year.

Concert length: approx 130 mins including an interval
