The Molinari Quartet is proud
to present to you its Sixth season of concerts in Montreal. World premieres
and well established works from the repertoire for string quartet are
on the menu.
Our Sixth season will have you discover a new generation
of composers. The four winning composers of our First
International Composition Competition, selected by a jury from
222 scores from 39 countries, will be performed at our first concert
of the season. Two young Canadian composers Marc Hyland and Kelly-Marie
Murphy will also be played during the year. The Molinari Quartet will
also extend its Bartók string quartet cycle by performing the
Second and Third quartets.
In co-production with the Montréal nouvelles
Musiques festival, the magic of colours, musical and visual will seduce
you with string quartets by Russian composer Sofia Gubaidulina and Canadian
R. Murray Schafer. Finally, the Molinari Quartet offers you as a Christmas
gift, the chance to hear once again works that are very dear to the
musicians of the ensemble. For the first time on stage together, the
renowned pianist Louise Bessette and the Molinari Quartet will perform
the Shostakovich piano quintet.
Tickets : 25 $ — students, seniors : 20
