Rihm@60 – The String Quartets in Paris
5e biennale de quatuors à cordes
Wolfgang Rihm’s 60th birthday year gets off to a great start
this January with the 5th String Quartet Biennale at the Cité de la
Musique in Paris (14–22 Jan).
The Biennale presents all of Rihm’s works for string quartet with performances by the world’s leading quartets (Kronos, Zemlinsky, Hagen, Modigliani, Tokyo, Casals, Arditti etc. etc.).
The highlight of the Biennale is the world première of Rihm’s String Quartet No. 13 by the Arditti Quartet.
See the full programme at the Cité de la Musique website.
To celebrate this extraordinary presentation of Rihm’s music, we are publishing the scores of all the string quartets (where available) online. Follow the UE blog during the coming week for details.
