Summary
Four musicians from the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra perform Beethoven’s String Quartet No. 14 at the CBSO Centre.
Why it's fantastic
Beethoven broke all the rules with this seven-movement masterpiece, written when he was almost entirely deaf and nearing the end of his life. These principal musicians take you through an intense hour of music that feels surprisingly modern despite being composed nearly two centuries ago in total isolation.
