Kreutzer String Quartet with Bridget MacRae, cello
Priaulx Rainier String Quartet
Jeremy Dale Roberts String Quintet
Leos Janácek Quartet no. 2 Intimate Letters
“What does link the works, however, is craftsmanship and integrity, as well as the obvious care with which the Kreutzer quartet performs them”
(The Guardian, 2009)
Jeremy Dale Roberts’ inventive and vibrant ‘String Quintet’ was recently premiered by the Kreutzers and draws for its inspiration on the art of Edvard Munch along with Virginia Woolf, Marina Tsvetayeva and Janácek - hence its pairing in this programme with Janácek’s ‘Intimate Letters’. Priaulx Rainier, Dale Robert’s teacher, lived in St. Ives and was a close friend of Barbara Hepworth and Ben Nicholson.
