Music in Mind: Left Bank Quartet 6x3

  • The Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center 8270 Alumni Drive College Park, MD, 20742 United States (map)

The Left Bank Quartet brings its unique vision to three pieces connected by the number six: Beethoven’s Sixth Quartet, Webern’s Six Bagatelles and Bartok’s Sixth Quartet. And with the final La Malincolia movement of the Beethoven; the recurring elegiac “Mesto” of the Bartók; and Webern’s stark musical sketches that convey life’s uncertainty, the notion of melancholy—and our sometimes triumph over it—is the other common denominator.
