Berlin-based Vision Quartet play Ligeti's compelling First String Quartet

The third of four recitals from Perth Concert Hall featuring French works at their core.

The award-winning Vision Quartet perform Ravel's richly colourful string quartet in F major, dedicated to his teacher Gabriel Faure. Ligeti鈥檚 early String Quartet No 1 opens the recital. Written during Ligeti's early years in communist Hungary, its countless miniature movements burst with ideas, colour and rhythmic complexity.
