Thomas Adès praises the great composers of the past, while he himself is a contemporary giant. A fascination for music history is reflected in all his compositions.

Jelmer de Moed
The Doric String Quartet invites the Dutch clarinet virtuoso Jelmer de Moed for the Adèsian sound spectrum in Alchymia . Not only Adès learns from colleagues, Beethoven also studied other masters. His String Quartet op. 18 no. 5 is in A major; he modeled this piece on an early Mozart quartet in the same key.
The Selected by series offers large works – side by side, opposite each other; in connection with each other or contrasting. In an hour you will hear the full range of the string quartet: all times, styles, sounds and colors.
This concert will later be broadcast by NTR on NPO Klassiek
