Extending String Quartet: A story across time
The historically informed Butter Quartet joins forces with the plucking specialists of Lute Legends at the Muziekgebouw on 30 January. The program the eight musicians put together speaks of the connection of various string instruments throughout the ages: their musical journey goes from Europe via the Middle East and Persia to China.

Strings Across Centuries: A Musical Journey
The music takes us from 18th-century Vienna via late Ottoman classical music to contemporary Chinese compositions incorporating traditional singing. When the Lute Legends and the Butter Quartet come together, they weave a story that spans time and distance. This shows what a string quartet can be in the present.
