Brodsky Quartet: Memories
Kings Place, Hall One, N1 9AG , [Venue Details]This ‘Memories’ inspired programme has something for everyone. From Davidson’s irresistible tropical island to Golijov’s juxtaposition of a war-torn, urban scene and a spectral vista.
Bartók’s heartbreaking yearning for his beloved Hungary to Dvorak’s bristling celebration of America’s wide open spaces. Euphoria, tragedy, optimism, nostalgia – it’s all here.
Robert Davidson’s glorious evocation of Straddie, the beautiful little island off the coast of his native Brisbane, washes over you like a gentle, tropical wave. An easy-going rhythmic bass is supplemented by an endless stream of effortless melodies, which you will be humming for days.
Osvaldo Golijov’s Tenebrae is a haunting depiction of two deeply contrasting incidents which occurred in his life in the year 2000. Having narrowly escaped being blown up on a bus in Jerusalem, he found himself, just a couple of days later, with his son in the New York Planetarium. As he gazed at the cosmos and pondered the image of our innocent, blue planet, the fragility of life was brought sharply into focus. The Pergolesi-inspired fragments, which begin and end the work, are interspersed with a sci-fi section reminiscent of Bartók’s infamous night music.
