Haydn: String Quartet in D minor Op 76 No 2
Dvořák: String Quartet in F Op 96 ‘American’
Dvořák: String Quartet in G Op 106

The Pavel Haas Quartet’s performance at Festival 2008 was one of that year’s highlights which both excited audiences and garnered critical acclaim. This year it returns with a programme which includes Dvořák’s American Quartet, written in Iowa at the same time as he composed the New World Symphony.

‘this is one of the most polished and musically exciting young string quartets in the world today’ (The Washington Post)

‘a riveting performance, loaded with flamboyance, passion and uncommon intimacy’ (The Scotsman, Festival 08)
