St Lawrence String Quartet at Music Toronto make Haydn, Britten and Zwilich sing

Stanley Fefferman, 3rd February

People want to be in love and to live forever. That is not how things work out. Haydn explores this contradiction in his string quartets. What makes each quartet different is how Haydn resolves musically the way things do work out.
