The Miami String Quartet plays beloved works by Mozart and Mendelssohn. Mozart’s String Quartet in D Minor is from a set that the composer dedicated to Haydn, who, after hearing the set, told Mozart’s father that his son was “the greatest composer” he’d ever known. Mendelssohn’s String Quartet in F Minor is his impassioned final chamber work, which he wrote following the death of his beloved sister Fanny, just months before his own death at the age of 38.

Two of today’s most electrifying classical musicians—violinist Paul Huang and pianist Zoltán Fejérvári—join the Miami String Quartet for Chausson’s lyrical and bravura Concerto in D Major on a program that also includes one of Mendelssohn’s teenaged masterpieces: the String Quartet in A Minor—a work that features several nods to Beethoven, who died only a few months before the piece was written.

Mendelssohn & Chausson

The dynamic Miami String Quartet plays one of the most beloved works for string quartet, Dvořák’s American Quartet, which the composer wrote while living in the US, and another Czech delight: Schulhoff’s Five Pieces for String Quartet, a lively suite of international dance miniatures that span the waltz to the tango. The Miami opens the program with a work that marks Schubert’s entrée into his mature compositional years: the Quartettsatz.
