Offbeat Mornings: Rosamonde Quartet

Free

Led by the Rosamonde Quartet — Agnès Sulem-Bialobroda and Hugo Meder (violins), Jean Sulem (viola) and Xavier Gagnepain (cello) — this programme journeys through Viennese chamber music from Haydn’s witty Op. 74 No. 3 to Webern’s expressionist Langsamer Satz and Schubert’s dramatic “Death and the Maiden”. The ensemble’s refined sonority and long-standing cohesion illuminate continuities and ruptures in style, while sensitive dynamics and meticulous phrasing reveal the music’s emotional breadth and intensity.
