The string quartet constantly demonstrates its ability to adapt to new possibilities in composition and sound, and to changing expectations. A stroke of genius by Ludwig van Beethoven contrasts with Ernst Helmuth Flammer’s bold musical architectonics, whilst Franz Jochen Herfert places modern rhythm centre stage. The German-Asian Jade Quartet performs with its customary precision and strongly expressive commitment.
