ECSQ Play Haydn, Mozetich & Borodin (Moncton)

April 24 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm

Date: April 24, 8:00PM | 24 avril, 20h00
Location | Lieu : Centre culturel Aberdeen – 140 rue Botsford St, Moncton

Tickets | Billets:
Adults | Adultes: $20
Seniors: $15
Students | Étudiants: $10
Sistema Students & Faculty: Free

Advance tickets | Billets à l’avance: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/elmcitystringquartet/1004423

The ECSQ season continues with a concert of joy and sorrow: themes that are continuously grappled by composers over the years.  New works offer new insight while old classics still continue to ring true. Haydn’s “Sunrise” Quartet opens with the sublime rising warmth of a new day. Mozetich’s Lament in the Trampled Garden is a neo-romantic Canadian gem that is mournful, but sways with the joy of blooming flowers.  Our last piece of the concert is Borodin’s famous String Quartet No. 2, full of beauty and nostalgia.  The piece is rumoured to have been a 20th anniversary gift to his wife, and is meant to portray the story of the time they first met.  

La saison de l’ECSQ continue avec un concert mêlant la joie et la tristesse : des thèmes qui ne cessent d’être abordés par les compositeurs au cours des années.  Les nouvelles œuvres offrent de nouvelles perspectives, tandis que les vieux classiques continuent de sonner avec pertinence. Le Quatuor “Sunrise” de Haydn s’ouvre avec la chaleur sublime d’un nouveau jour qui se lève.  “Lament in the Trampled Garden” par Mozetich est un trésor canadien néo-romantique qui est en deuil, mais qui oscille avec la joie des fleurs qui s’épanouissent.  La dernière pièce du concert est le fameux Quatuor à cordes n° 2 de Borodin, plein de beauté et de nostalgie.

Elm City String Quartet

The ECSQ Play Mendelssohn, Piazzolla, and Pärt 🎻

March 14 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm

The Elm City String Quartet continues its season with a contrast of minimalism, romanticism and tango. Piazzolla’s Tango Ballet, an excellent example of nuevo tango, is a programmatic suite, and featuring six “film scenes”: introduction, the street, encounter / forgetfulness, cabaret, solitude, and the street again.

Elm City String Quartet

Arvo Pärt’s Summa is inspired by Medieval chant and Renaissance polyphony, and was originally composed as an a cappella vocal work for four singers. Mendelssohn’s Quartet Four is full of virtuosic passion, charming dance movements, and intimate romantic lyricism. While these pieces are from different ends of a musical spectrum, they all manage to get to the heart of what music is all about, in their own way.

  • Moncton – March 13, 7:30PM at Centre culturel Aberdeen – 140 rue Botsford St, Moncton
