Summary
The Hope Street Ensemble performs Beethoven’s String Quartet No.11 and Brahms’s String Quintet No.2 at Liverpool Philharmonic Hall, featuring soloists including Emily Mowbray and Qian Wu.
Why it's fantastic
Beethoven wrote this compact quartet during a period of heartbreak, resulting in some of his most concentrated and fiery music. It is paired here with a light-filled quintet that Brahms intended to be his final masterpiece. This hour-long programme offers a perfect afternoon escape into the deep emotions of the romantic era.
