Ligeti Day: Quartets

Join the Ligeti Quartet and friends for an enticing programme of György Ligeti's music, including the incredible Poème Symphonique for 100 metronomes.

An exploration of Ligeti’s unique take on the fundamental elements of music from the playful Poème Symphonique for 100 metronomes to Bartók-inspired Quartet No.1, modernist Quartet No.2, and the uncertain harmonies and tangled textures of Ramifications.

Modern Monday

In their first concert since March, the Ligeti Quartet perform modern classics for string quartet, including Axel Borup-Jørgensen's Microorganisms miniatures.

Their trip has been generously supported by Snyk, the Danish organization supporting new and experimental music and sound art.
