Just a note of a BBC broadcast of a concert from the Cheltenham Festival, with the terrific multi-prize-winning young Leonkoro Quartet (they won last year’s Wigmore Hall string quartet competition in style) and the equally terrific Elizabeth Brauss. The quartet played Webern’s Slow Movement for String Quartet (which I didn’t know) and Schulhoff’s 5 Pieces for String Quartet, and then were joined by Elisabeth to perform Schumann’s Piano Quintet in E flat major, Op 44.
Wonderful, I thought.
