Founded in 1997 in Madrid, Cuarteto Casals regularly performs in the world’s most prestigious concert halls since winning First Prizes at the London and Brahms-Hamburg competitions. We begin with a quartet by Spanish Basque child prodigy Arriaga, revealing a unique sound modeled after Hadyn and Mozart. Next we hear an exciting work commissioned in 2024 from Spanish-American composer Elisenda Fábregas, The evening ends with Schubert’s harmonically innovative and final quartet, widely considered his greatest and most challenging.
