Webern - Berg - Beethoven
The first part of the Viennese diptych proposed by the four bows of the Akilone Quartet this weekend: after Webern's aphorisms (Bagatelles op. 9), Alban Berg's moving and mysterious Lyrical Suite is combined with its model, Ludwig van Beethoven's impressive Thirteenth Quartet, with its monumental final fugue.
