CELEBRATION OF HARMONY

(F. Schubert and D. Shostakovich)

The Gaziza Zhubanova State String Quartet offers a programme of works by chamber classics – Franz Schubert and Dmitri Shostakovich

Schubert’s String Quartet No. 13 in A minor (Rosamunde). Poetic love and pure joy of life, despair and coldness of solitude, seeking of high ideal, thirst for vagrancy and hopelessness of wanderings – all those feelings were reflected in the composer’s creative work, in his spontaneously and naturally flowing melodies. He filled the music with the warmth and immediacy of song lyrics, revealing the inexhaustible emotional world of a person. Despite the depth of the quartet’s music, it conveys a feminine fragility, and with all its simplicity – refinement and elegance.
