Rhapsody Series: Confrontations with Fate
Juliette Greer (violin), Tim Deighton (viola), Ben Deighton (cello), and Katherine Benson (piano) present two of the most dramatic and thrilling works from the piano quartet repertoire. Mozart’s Piano Quartet in G Minor is one of the composer’s rare minor-key works, set in Mozart’s so-called “key of fate.” Despite its turbulent Sturm und Drang character, the piece still features Mozart’s classic operatic lyricism and ends in the sunshine key of G Major.
Brahms’ Piano Quartet in C Minor similarly explores the composer’s inner turmoil, this time an expression of unrequited love and possibly an allusion to Brahms’ rumored love for Clara Schumann. Written nearly a century apart, these two piano quartets are both riveting musical confrontations with fate.
