SUMMARY:Musica Viva: Vision String Quartet
DESCRIPTION:An Australian debut for Vision String Quartet – a crack ensemble from Berlin that performs from memory\, offering a deeper\, more immersive experience for audiences.\nThe conductor Jeffrey Tate once described the string quartet as ‘the most perfect expression of human behaviour’.

SUMMARY:International Classics: Ilya Gringolts and Aura Go
DESCRIPTION:Watch as the violin virtuoso and piano prodigy join forces.\nFeted for his effortless renditions of the otherwise impossible – from Paganini and Locatelli to Brett Dean – Ilya’s performances and recordings have established him as one of the quintessential violin virtuosi of our time. He has performed as soloist with the world’s leading orchestras\, including a recent collaboration with the Australian Chamber Orchestra. \nPianist Aura Go joins Ilya for the first time since collaborating at the 2016 Kuhmo Chamber Music Festival in Finland. Their shared passion for contemporary music unites them here in the Australian premiere of modern master Wolfgang Rihm’s Phantom und Eskapade\, dedicated to Anne-Sophie Mutter. \nRihm’s invocation of the fantastical alludes to the Schumann sonata and its preoccupations with imagination and myth. The Mozart sonata will unveil the crystalline sounds of Ilya’s Stradivarius violin. \n\nTuesday 19 September 2023 7.30pm     MRC\, Elisabeth Murdoch Hall \nDuration: 1 hour 45 mins (incl. interval) Please note\, running times are approximate and subject to change. \n\n\n\n\nTICKETS: Premium $115; A reserve $99 ($87 Concession); B reserve $85 ($67 Concession); C reserve $64\nD reserve $49

SUMMARY:Australian String Quartet: Utopias
DESCRIPTION:Enter worlds of fantastical visions\, intimate revelation\, and quiet hope for the spirit of mankind.\nVanishing visions of the idyll — a Utopian world of natural splendour\, aquatic and pastoral — are conjured by an intricate and highly original string soundscape from Thomas Adès\, titled Arcadiana. Following this is Mozart’s String Quartet in D minor — intensely personal in its expression\, moments of intimately sublime sorrow give way to bursts of playful radiance\, in only the way Mozart can achieve. \nFinishing this concert is a work that provides an outward lens to the inner world of a composer balancing a delicate and dangerous relationship with political powers. Dedicated to his third wife Irena\, Dimitri Shostakovich’s String Quartet No.9 is defined by its introspective whisperings\, caressing melodies\, and dramatic edge-of-your-seat rhythmic bite. \n\nMonday 15 May 2023 7pm; Elisabeth Murdoch Hall; Duration: 1 hour 40 mins (incl. interval) \n\n\n\n\nTICKETS: Standard $78 ($67 Concession); Student & Under 30: $33

SUMMARY:Musica Viva presents Benjamin Beilman and Andrew Tyson
DESCRIPTION:In one of the most exciting classical music debuts of the year\, two award-winning young stars make their first recital tour of Australia. \nThe program reflects the equal nature of their roles. Saint-Saëns’ First Violin Sonata requires two virtuosi to bring it off: the two parts are equal in emotional expression and take turns in musical leadership\, before joining for an exuberant finale which has been called “the most exciting in the repertoire”. Mozart’s late Violin Sonata K526 gives each of the performers a thrillingly virtuoso part\, in an unusual (for the time) display of equality. It begins and ends in A major\, a key Mozart always chose when his operatic heroines sang of love: perhaps this inspired the particularly beautiful slow movement. \nJanáček’s Sonata is a darker beast\, written at the onset of the Great War\, with what the composer described as “the sound of metal clashing” in his head. But it has a richly Romantic character too\, and a wealth of Bohemian folk touches. A notable inclusion on the program is a purpose-built world premiere by Jane Stanley\, an Australian composer now resident in Glasgow\, whose distinctive musical language marries fiery technique with emotional impact. \nProgram:\nMOZART Sonata no 35 in A major\, K. 526\nJANÁCEK Violin Sonata\nSTANLEY Cerulean Orbits (World Premiere)\nCommissioned by Musica Viva’s Hildegard Project\nSAINT-SAËNS Sonata no 1 in D minor\, op 75
