Piatti Quartet
Haydn's sublime, medidative instrumental passion - seven miniature ?sonatas' and a shocking, violent concluding musical earthquake - is a fascinating and unconventional hybrid and a cornerstone of the Eastertide repertoire. Restrained, contemplative and mirroring the themes and even the rhythms and speech-patterns of the biblical texts, he constructs a profound meditation on the events of Good Friday in that most intimate of forms, the string quartet.
