EIF: Arditti Quartet
31 August 2009 at 11:00amThe Arditti Quartet has been at the forefront of the development of string quartets in contemporary music for over thirty years. In two programmes the Quartet embarks on a musical journey from Beethoven through seminal works by Webern and Schoenberg to contemporary masterpieces by Ligeti and Dutilleux.
Inspired by the Ringing Stone of Tiree, a new work from Scottish-based composer Nigel Osborne has been commissioned for the Quartet by the Edinburgh International Festival.
Tickets for all EIF events – at all venues – are available at The Queen’s Hall Box Office for personal callers.
