Kaleidoscope Collective in Beethoven, Strauss and Schoenberg
The all-star Kaleidoscope Collective pair Beethoven's joyful early String Quintet with Schoenberg's haunting Transfigured Night and, in between, Richard Strauss's Metamorphosen.
Kaleidoscope Collective present a neglected masterpiece by Beethoven and Schoenberg's haunting Transfigured Night.
Wigmore Hall's popular Associated Artists have devised a typically imaginative programme in which they pair two works with a Janus-like character. Written a century apart, both Beethoven's String Quintet and Schoenberg's Verkl盲rte Nacht seem to look to the past and to the future. And, in between those, Kaleidoscope Collective play Richard Strauss's Metamorphosen, a deeply moving lament for German culture written amid the destruction of World War II.
