In the beautiful setting of Deerness the Edinburgh Quartet is joined by mandolin player Alon Sariel for a varied and fascinating programme. Clark Nichols new work explores timbre for quartet and strings whilst Hans Gal’s music takes inspiration from Mozart’s use of the mandolin in Don Giovanni. Judith Weir’s Quartet takes songs from Spain and Banffshire as its starting point. Puccini’s delicate elegy “Chrysanthemums” and Schubert’s unfinished quartet movement complete this spellbinding programme.
